Top 10 Things to Do in Kyoto

Kyoto is Japan's cultural heart, home to over 1,600 Buddhist temples and 400 Shinto shrines that have defined Japanese aesthetics for centuries. Walking through the Arashiyama bamboo grove or watching geisha glide through Gion's lantern-lit streets feels like stepping into another era. Kyoto rewards slow travel with layers of history, craft, and ceremonial beauty.
