Buddhismen har de mest troende ud af alle religioner i Japan. Det har flere sekter, og en af de største sekter i Japan er Shingon Otani, hvis troende siges at være omkring 8 millioner. De fleste af dem plejede at være almindelige mennesker som handlende og landmænd. Higashi Honganji er et hovedtempel på omkring 9.000 templer i Shingon Otani, og dets grundlæggers sal er den største træbygning i verden med over 900 tatami-måtter, der er lagt og i stand til at holde 3.000 mennesker på én gang. Du vil blive ramt af japanskes dybe tro og den majestætiske atmosfære i denne hal.
Nishiki-markedet hedder Kyoto-køkkenet. Hvad er det? Det siges at under dette distrikt er der et gigantisk vandreservoir. Derfor har Kyoto været velsignet med frisk og lækkert vand fra længe siden. Udnyttelse af dette vand for omkring 500 år siden udviklede et fiskemarked på dette sted, og forskellige butikker samledes gradvist senere. Næsten alt hvad du behøver på daglig basis er tilgængelig på dette marked. Kyoto specialitet er grøntsager dyrket i rent vand, pickles lavet af de grøntsager og tofu, der også udnytter dette lækre vand. Der er mange butikker, hvor du kan prøve mad, så prøv Kyoto-specialiteter elskede i århundreder af lokalbefolkningen.
I 1603 flyttede shogunen sin shogunat til Edo, nutidens Tokyo. Nijo-slottet blev bygget som slottet, hvor shogun'en blev ved at besøge Kyoto. Inde i slottet er der mere end 1.000 smukke billeder malet på skydedøre, der giver dig en forståelse af Shoguns magtfulde autoritet. Det var i dette meget slot, at den sidste shogun erklærede at returnere magten til kejseren i 1867, efter 260 år af hans families styre.
Kyoto Imperial Palace er beliggende i et omfattende område i centrum af Kyoto. Indtil hovedstaden blev flyttet til Tokyo i 1868, levede kejsers familie her. Og selv i dag, når kejseren og / eller kronprinsen kommer til Kyoto, forbliver de på et af boligerne på dette websted. De luksuriøse bygninger og smukt anlagte haver fortæller her om den raffinerede smag af tiderne. Dette sted er et must-see, når du besøger Kyoto.

Chie was a great guide with lots of information to share. The tour was very informative and Chie knew how to get us around making maximum use of our time. The Palace and Castle are very different from each other. Don't expect the Palace to be like a European Palace full of furniture and gold.
Thank you for your kind words and positive review! We are very happy to know that you were able to see and learn a lot of things. Enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan!
Michi was an excellent guide. She knew so much about all the spots, led us to some excellent udon noodles and we even learnt some basic Japanese :)
Thank you for taking the time to leave a positive review! We're delighted to know that you had a good day with Michi while learning about Japanese culture and language.
This was an excellent tour with a knowledgeable and charming guide who spoke very good English. The walking tour format offered an up-close look at Kyoto's history, architecture, and culture with enough time to enjoy shopping and refreshments. I highly recommend this tour.

Fuji was a great guide! I had lots of questions about history and culture…he answered them all or got me the answers. Took us places on the tour we would not have seen if we were on our own. Made great recommendations on food at the Nishiki market. Very cool tour!
We're so grateful for your positive feedback and happy to know that you had a great tour with Fuji. Thank you for taking the time to write a review!
This was an awesome experience for myself and my family! My guide did a great job explaining things to myself and my family! The dinning restaurant that the guide recommended was Perfect and tasted really good!
Thank you for your kind review. We're thrilled to have made a positive impact on you.
I would recommend this walking tour tour to those who want to see the most of Kyoto but don't have much time. The tour company was excellent. After making teh booking they kept me informed with a detailed itinerary of sites and times, pictures of meeting point with the guide (including her name, Meg, photo and phone number). Meg was an excellent guide. She spoke English well and had a very good knowledge of each sight. She was mindful of the comfort of her guests in such humid conditions. The Imperial Palace, Higashi Honganji Temple and Nijo Castle were amazing.
Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review. We are happy to know that you enjoyed the tour. Hopefully we'll see you again in Japan someday.
Our favorite was Nijo Castle but the comparison to the Palace was very interesting. Our guide was friendly, informative and interesting. There was a lot of walking so be prepared for that too.
We had an excellent tour with it guide Komi. He did an amazing job of getting all the highlights of the tour in despite the fact we were running quite late due to our mix up in where we were meeting. He took us to the main Imperial Palace, the Nijo-jo Castle, a kimono show, then got us tickets in to see Sento Palace gardens, which were very lovely! Sento Palace gardens are limited so we were very lucky to get entrance tickets and would not have known to ask without Komi's suggestion. I will not that this tour does have a good deal of walking as part of it. We registered almost 9 miles by the end of the day.
Thank you for your comments. We are happy to know that you enjoyed the tour and we duly take note that the tour involves quite a bit of walking. We hope to see you again in Japan.
