kyoto japan travel guide
The historic former capital, Kyoto is considered the cultural capital of Japan, having been spared from much of the destruction of World War II.
Known as the City of Ten Thousand Shrines, Kyoto is home to many shrines, many which are now designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites; the most famous of them being Kinkakuji, the Golden Pavilion, whose top two floors are completely covered in gold leaf.
A little closer to the city, Kiyomizudera (“Pure Water Temple”) is one of the most well-known for its wooden structure.
