About KYOTO

Kyoto: A Timeless Blend of Beauty and Craftsmanship

Kyoto is a city that gracefully blends new cultures and technologies with over a thousand years of history and tradition. Once the prosperous capital of Japan, Kyoto is home to historic temples, charming streets, and traditional artisanal skills that continue to thrive today.



Kyoto’s Four Seasons: Four Unique Faces of Beauty

Kyoto’s charm lies in its stunning scenery, which transforms with each season. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom, bathing the city in soft pink hues. In summer, traditional festivals like the Gion Matsuri are celebrated on a grand scale, filling the city with a lively atmosphere. In autumn, fiery red leaves adorn the temples, shrines, and gardens, while winter blankets the city in snow, bringing a serene beauty.




Kyoto Craftsmanship: Preserving Tradition and Pride

Kyoto’s true charm lies not only in its scenery but in the craftsmanship and dedication passed down through generations. From kimono dyeing and weaving to ceramics and precision watchmaking, Kyoto’s artisans pour their soul into every detail.
