I live in Kyoto—a city I truly love. It’s because Kyoto reminds me of something I had forgotten. In the rush of everyday life, I often find myself chasing comfort and convenience. There are a few places I visit at times like that—places I hold dear. A quiet garden surrounded by trees, and a five-hundred-year-old temple steeped in history and tradition welcome me. There are hardly any people around. The flowing water, the falling petals, the moss-covered gardens—all these simple beauties make me pause and notice what I’ve overlooked. Quiet Kyoto touches the soul. This is the Kyoto I want to share with my guests—not just the famous landmarks, but the hidden sanctuaries where the heart can breathe. All you have to do is to put yourself on the side of nature. I'm sure you will feel the heart of Kyoto through these encounters.

(Subject to Option Inclusions)

Itinerary

Gion Shirakawa

Furukawa Local Market and Shirakawa Riverside Walking

Shoren-in Temple (Shoren-in Monzeki)

Shoren-in: The fire that occurred downtown 300 years ago destroyed almost the whole city. The Imperial Palace burnt down. The emperor moved to the east of Kamogawa River and lived here for some years. So Shorenin used to be the emperor's residence. You can see Kyoto's Imperial Palace only from outside but here in Shorenin you can see the emperor's room inside. Its cultural value is priceless.
