Kyoto reveals itself through a collection of carefully chosen experiences, combining centuries-old traditions, exceptional craftsmanship and unexpected places far from the city's most familiar sights.

Grill your own barbecue behind the fish market, wander through the garden of a unique temple, meet the craftsman reviving a traditional Kyoto fan that had disappeared for fifty years, step inside a hidden teahouse tucked away in a temple, taste the city's best egg sandwich or discover the aguri mochi at the heart of a rivalry stretching back more than a thousand years.
