Buddhismen har de mest troende ut av alla religioner i Japan. Det har flera sekter, och en av de största sekterna i Japan är Shingon Otani, vars troende sägs vara cirka 8 miljoner. De flesta av dem brukade vara vanliga människor som handlare och bönder. Higashi Honganji är ett huvudtempel på cirka 9000 tempel Shingon Otani och dess grundarehall är världens största träbyggnad med över 900 tatamimattor som lagts och kan rymma 3.000 personer samtidigt. Du kommer att drabbas av japanernas djupa tro och den här majestätiska atmosfären i denna hall.
Nishiki-marknaden kallas Kyoto-köket. Vad är det där? Det sägs att under denna stadsdel finns en gigantisk vattenreservoar. Därför har Kyoto blivit välsignad med färskt och gott vatten från länge sedan. Utnyttjande av det vattnet, för 500 år sedan, utvecklades en fiskmarknad på denna plats, och olika butiker samlades senare. Nästan allt du behöver på daglig basis finns på denna marknad. Kyotos specialitet är grönsaker odlade i rent vatten, pickles av dessa grönsaker och tofu, som också använder detta läckra vatten. Det finns många butiker där du kan prova mat, så snälla prova Kyoto specialiteter älskade i århundraden av lokalbefolkningen.
I 1603 flyttade shogunen sin shogunate till Edo, dagens Tokyo. Nijo slott byggdes som slottet där shogun stannade när man besöker Kyoto. Inuti slottet finns det mer än 1.000 underbara bilder målade på skjutdörrar, vilket ger dig en förståelse för Shoguns kraftfulla auktoritet. Det var i detta mycket slott att den sista shogunen förklarade att återvända makten till kejsaren 1867, efter 260 år av hans familj styrelse.
Kyoto Imperial Palace ligger i ett omfattande område i centrala Kyoto. Fram till dess att huvudstaden flyttades till Tokyo år 1868, bodde kejsarens familj här. Och även idag, när kejsaren och / eller kronprinsen kommer till Kyoto, bor de på en av bostäderna på denna sida. De lyxiga byggnaderna och de vackert arrangerade trädgårdarna här berättar om en förtrollad smak av tiden. Denna plats är ett måste när du besöker 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.
