ntroduced here are ten single-day “World Heritage and Historic Byway Study Tours” within a wide radius of the Kansai that visitors from Japan and abroad can select, enjoy and report to friends about after returning home. There are numerous historical and cultural resources to see and the passions of the surrounding areas that have handed them down over the ages to experience. We want to show you what makes these areas so interesting via a variety of themes like “ancient adventures”, “exquisite architectural beauty” and “traditional industries”. This new form of travel is being proposed by Rekishi-kaido

Along the Atago-kaido Byway are found thatched-roof homes and one of the Shinto arches that light up the summer evening skies of Kyoto as part of the five mountain bonfires originally intended to send the spirits of lost persons to heaven.
Moreover, it is a subtle and profound world with stone Buddha statues and arhats in places such as Adashinonenbutsu-ji Temple.
A stroll along the Arashiyama Hanato-ro Course takes you to Tenryu-ji Temple, shrines and typical streetscapes of Kyoto connected by beautifully lit-up flowers and fields to create the aura of Japanese sentiment. The area has become a new attraction in Kyoto. |
