Kyoto(京都市): Studying in the heart of Japan

If you are someone who’s very much interested in going to Japan, then there’s a high chance that you have heard of Kyoto! Tourists that go to Japan immediately go to Tokyo or Kyoto, depending on what they want to experience. Tokyo is for someone who is really interested in popular culture, technology, and fashion. Kyoto, however, is for people who want to experience the tradition and for people who want to immerse themselves in Japanese culture.

Accessible by airplanes, bullet trains, cars, and by ships, Kyoto is the cultural heart and capital of Japan where most of its culture is untouched and unchanged. This makes it a mecca of every history and culture buff out there! It is located in the Kansai Region along with Osaka and Kobe, it’s a definite tourist destination! The best part about Kyoto is how unlike some of the tourist destinations in Japan, Kyotois perfect to go to in all 4 seasons, Japan has to offer!
