Overview
I live in Kyoto—a city I truly love. Kyoto reminds me of something I had forgotten. In the rush of everyday life, I often find myself pressed for time. There are a few places I visit from time to time. A quiet garden surrounded by trees, and a five-hundred-year-old temple steeped in history and tradition welcome me. There are hardly any people around. The flowing water, the falling petals, the moss-covered gardens—all these simple beauties make me pause and notice what I’ve overlooked. Quiet Kyoto touches the soul. This is the Kyoto I want to share with my guests—not just the famous landmarks, but the hidden sanctuaries where the heart can breathe. All you have to do is put yourself on the side of nature. I'm sure you will feel the heart of Kyoto through these encounters.

is one of the 16 World Heritage Sites in Kyoto. It was built 400 years ago by Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu. As there is no original palace except NIjho Castle, Its value is historically and architecturally priceless. In addition, gorgeous wall paintings and its lord garden attract your attention. It is like a living museum, indeed. In this visit, you come to know about Shogun Ieyasu’s intention of building the palace.
-
Ryoan-ji Templeis also a world heritage site in Kyoto, internationally famous for its dry garden. The garden consists of white sand, moss, and 15 rocks. Through the visit to this temple, you will know why zen attracts people today and also understand why samurai supported zen. Another attraction is maple trees, which heal and relax people throughout the year.
-
Shoren-in Temple (Shoren-in Monzeki)is the highlight of this tour. This is not a world heritage site, but it has enormous historical and cultural value. It’s no exaggeration to say that you cannot visit Kyoto without visiting Shorenin. Once you enter the temple, you will instantly notice the difference from other destinations. The essence of Kyoto and Japan is condensed here. This is the authentic Kyoto I’ll invite you to.
-
Gion ShirakawaAt the end of the tour, you walk along Shirakawa Riverside. Unlike Gion Shirakawa, it has much fewer visitors. The riverside with willow trees is quiet and serene. You can feel the atmosphere of the traditional townscape.

Kyoto City Nakagyo Area GymnasiumFood is one of the attractions you can enjoy in Kyoto. This lunch place is the best. Delicious, reasonable price, friendly atmosphere. All my clients get happy after eating here.
