About Central Kyoto Area

The city that is the starting point of Japanese history

This area is the center of Kyoto. In Japanese history, the area was inhabited by emperors.

There are many places to sightsee, partly because it has always been a part of Japan's history, to the extent that some people say it would not be today except for here.
