Katsura Imperial Villa is too beautiful to express! In the early Edo period, Prince Toshihito, who excelled in both literature and the martial art from childhood, built the Villa. That is both tasteful and simple. We need to apply for the Imperial Household Agency to get in. I will apply for you by postcard. It takes an hour to see the villa by the special guide of the villa. The fee is free.

“Great Visitor Guide”
Toshi provided us with so much knowledge and insight during our 1/2 day tour of Kyoto. Assisted us with taking public transport and access to some of the tourist spots. So worth the experience and thank you so much for your assistance. Highly recommended

“Great Day with Toshiyo :)”
Toshiyo met us at our hotel and first we saw Sanjusangendo Hall with the visually stunning 1,001 wooden statues of the thousand-handed Kannon. She explained everything quite well and we enjoyed our time there. We then had a nice sushi lunch while she showed us around Nishiki Market including the yuba store where we sampled, purchased and the owner even gifted us yuba. Wonderful day and Toshiyo kindly gave us the lay of the land in Kyoto. Thank you!
