Kyoto Serenity

A sense of calm permeates the city of Kyoto, situated in the western heart of the island of Honshu, in the Kansai region. From gardens to temples, from cherry blossom trees to wooden architecture, the natural beauty of Kyoto is always showcased. This tranquil identity is also reflected in the simplified approach to cuisine, which champions the pure flavor of top-quality ingredients.

The lively spirit of Kyoto is best experienced during Gion Matsuri, one of Japan’s largest festivals. Through the pages of this travel coffee table book, Japanese culture is on full display, exploring time-honored traditions such as geishas, tea ceremonies, and flower.
