Kyoto is one of the most popular and most beautiful cities in Japan. With its temples, shrines, traditional streets, and long history as Japan’s former capital, it’s a place many people dream of visiting, and for good reason. But it’s also a city that comes with crowds, expectations, and the need for good planning.

From central Kyoto to Arashiyama, this is an honest Kyoto travel guide based on our experience, especially useful if it’s your first time visiting Japan.
