About the destination: For over a thousand years Kyoto was the capital of Japan and it is probably the best preserved of all its cities. It’s a beautiful vibrant city where modern life meets old traditional Japan. The city is surrounded by the mountains of Western Honshu and is a perfect base when visiting the Kansai region. The city is rich in heritage sites and culture, it has a great variety and number of restaurants and is fairly easy to navigate around. Its rich culture and heritage permeates from each and every architecture and customs. Kyoto has thousands of temples and shrines, including the spectacular golden Kinkaku-ji, Ryoanji with its Zen garden, the popular Kiyomizu-dera, Sanjusangendo with its life-size statues of Kannon and the more tranquil Tenryu-ji in Arashiyama. Also in Arashiyama, there is the famous Bamboo Grove. A wonderful thing to do in Kyoto is a walking tour of Gion, one of the main Geisha districts. Its wooden buildings and lamps create the perfect ambiance. Kyoto is one of the greatest historical cities in the world, filled with temples, shrines, teahouses and imperial residences. Kyoto is a city steeped in culture and heritage it’s a must for anyone with an interest in Japanese history and culture.

About the destination: Odawara is a city located southwest of Tokyo and who does not enjoy much reputation or interest of the major tourist circuits. This small town is a place of passage for travelers from Tokyo are directed to the area of Hakone to visit one of the most famous natural environments in the world, El Monte Fuji. Most tourists take the Shinkansen Kodama from Tokyo and Odawara alight from where you take a bus to Hakone to reach the area near Mount Fuji, with unique views of the same. Perhaps Odawara does not have a famous temples or traditions so deeply rooted as those found in Kyoto , but if that treasures a únic tranquility where you can enjoy life in a different Japanese city to the great capitals of the country. The town is small size town and can be explored on foot. There is a curious music through the streets leading adorned with classic neon signs that abound in the country. Quiet and clean streets , full of shops and delis that give a traditional touch perfect for walking unhurriedly. The most important thing to see Odawara is undoubtedly its beautiful Medieval Castle . This castle of the Japanese Edo era is one of the great wonders of the country and is part of the more than twenty medieval castles currently living in Japan. The park we found before reaching the Odawara Castle is also worth seeing a beautiful red bridge that reflected in the water, we will show a beautiful image will not forget. The train station is another attraction of the city by its structure and architectural style. Odawara is a quick and easy city to see , so if you plan to visit the area of Mount Fuji, through this route, keep you a few hours to visit this beautiful city and its enigmatic Castle , where you can see a museum full of objects, weapons and apparels and Samurais Edo era.
