The coach takes the group to Kyoto – the ancient capital, more than 1,000 years old. Kyoto is a truly old city because it has no skyscrapers or modern buildings. In return, the old capital preserves many historic and cultural sites, both material and spiritual, of the Japanese people:
Golden Pavilion (Kinkaku-ji) – a temple beside a famous lake, featured in school textbooks across Japan and recognized by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage site. The temple is built in the Shinden-zukuri style, a combination of architecture and nature, with a wooden foundation, curved tiled roofs and top floors covered in real gold leaf that show wealth and nobility, creating a space in harmony with its surroundings.
