The unforgettable Kyoto. Tours to the most famous places of the old capital.

You can visit the most famous sights of the ancient capital.

Nijo Castle was built as a fortification and residence of an outstanding military commander and commander Shogun Tokugawa. For a long time it was a symbol of a powerful military ruler in Kyoto. One of the interesting features of the castle - nightingale floors - a kind of version of the medieval alarm system.

The Zen Buddhist-style stone garden (or philosophical garden) at the Temple of the Resting Dragon is one of the most famous and amazing sights of Kyoto. The mystery lies in the fact that from whatever point of the garden we look, only 14 of the 15 stones of the garden can be seen. Wherever we go on the terrace, one stone is always hidden from view.

The 33 Space Temple is the oldest and longest wooden building in Japan (120 m). There are 1001 statues of the thousand-armed goddess of mercy Kannon. 2 famous statues of the gods of Thunder and Wind and 28 guardians of ancient Indian deities.

The Golden Pavilion is considered a symbol of Kyoto and one of the best examples of Japanese national culture. The 2nd and 3rd floors of this three-tiered structure are covered with fine plates of pure gold. Framed by its “mirror lake” with large and small islands overgrown with ancient pines, in which you can see the reflection of this beautiful temple.

The Temple of Pure Water is a Buddhist temple complex on Mount Higashiyama, from the famous wooden terrace which offers stunning views of the city. It was founded before Kyoto was founded in 778.
