-
Chishaku-inThis hardly-visited garden will transport your mind to far-away lands. Also on display are sliding door paintings by one of Japan's most heralded painters.

Sanjusangendo TempleThis temple is one of the oldest structures in Kyoto and home to 1,001 jaw-dropping golden Buddha. There is nothing like this in all of Japan.

Kawai Kanjiro Memorial MuseumThe converted home of a noted 20th century master potter, this museum is a fine example of the wabi sabi way of design and living. You will surely notice that this space will be unlike any other that you visit in Kyoto.
