Kyoto, the Historical Capital of Japan

Purple Star emoji 17 items
My personal favorite part of my Japan by far.  As the previous capital of Japan, Kyoto is home to the bustling city life mixed in with the historical landmarks. This is what makes Kyoto, Kyoto.

Tucked away in the suburbs of Kyoto. Hands down, one of the best AIRBNB and host ever!

Walkable distance from the station, this place is tucked away in a small alley way.  The host/manager was the sweetest person ever.  He went out of his way to go beyond with his service.  I would definitely stay here again in the future.

By far, one of my most favorite experience in Kyoto.  Buy a ticket and take this bus service that you can hop on and off anytime at the famous landmarks.
