KANSAI
HISTORY
As the land of the ancient capitals Kyoto and Nara, the Kansai region preserves numerous historical architectures. Take a trip back in time as you let your mind wander to the olden days.
Kyoto is home to countless beautiful temples and shrines filled with history that symbolize Japan, such as the 1,300-year-old Fushimi Inari Shrine famous for its thousands of vermillion torii gates and the glistening golden pavilion of Kinkaku-ji Temple resting upon a beautiful Japanese garden.
Even more ancient than Kyoto, the entire old capital city of Nara is like a World Heritage site. There is much to see, such as Japan's largest bronze Buddha statue in Todai-ji Temple, and the serene deer, said to be messengers of the gods, living in the vast precincts of Kasuga Taisha Shrine.
