The Best and Most Unique Travel Guide of Kyoto, Japan

Tired of the typical boring guides? This guide tries to do the same as the “ask a local”, but it is (maybe!) better organized and more complete. In all our guides, we hire a “local” writer, and then we edit to be sure that the guide is complete, unique, fun and interesting. Typically we won’t add too many maps or photos (just a few), since you can have all that on the internet, and we like to give you only unique and original content that you won’t find easily.

Here is a brief description of the guide:

The most representative image of Japan is Tokyo, the capital of the nation. But the second city that comes to mind to those interested in knowing more about the Land of the Rising Sun (and those who might be interested in travelling here to see all it has to offer first-hand) is Kyoto. Once the ancient capital and thrumming heart of the country, this city is even nowadays more traditional than technologic, and the nearly countless shrines, temples, parks and natural enclosures that pepper the metropolitan area of the city are proof enough that the religious and folkloristic spirit of Japan is alive, well and resilient among the ever changing face of the country. But Kyoto, just like many other places you could visit in Japan, has much to offer: it has many secrets and hidden treasures that await for those curious enough to explore the city behind every corner.
With this guide, you will explore and learn more about Kyoto and prepare yourself as best as you can, so that you are able to enjoy every side of what the city has to offer: from the religious buildings to the museums that you could visit, and again the activities that every tourist could choose to take part to while in Kyoto. You will also learn about traditional food, souvenirs and events you could integrate into your journey so that this will be not only a holiday but also a full-on experience, surrounded by all things that make Japan what it is today.

You will be so enchanted to see locals living their everyday life surrounded by many stunning buildings and locations that will make your head spin. The historical, cultural and artistic importance collected in the boundaries of Kyoto is priceless and you’ll have to make the most of your holiday and of your time in the city if you wish to sample all it has to offer. Not only the sights but also the atmosphere, the traditions, customs and all the little details, dishes and activities that make a trip to Kyoto a true hands-on experience of this ancient cradle of Japanese culture.

Enjoy!
