About the tour
Discover the essence of Kyoto in a unique experience that combines history, spirituality, and digital art.
We will begin our journey at the majestic Amidadomon Gate of Honganji Temple, the grand entrance to the impressive Nishi Honganji Temple, one of Japan’s most important cultural treasures and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Accompanied by a guide, we’ll explore its prayer halls, centuries-old wooden structures, and traditional gardens that reflect the tranquility and beauty of Japanese Buddhism. Afterwards, you’ll have free time to explore the temple at your own pace and take photos.
Next, we’ll head to the modern Kyoto Station, a landmark of contemporary Japanese architecture. Here, you’ll enjoy the Daikandan light show, a stunning artistic installation that transforms the station’s grand central staircase into a giant luminous screen, with projections that celebrate Japanese culture.
The day concludes with a visit to the fascinating digital world of TeamLab Kyoto, an immersive space where art, technology, and creativity come together to offer one-of-a-kind sensory experiences. As you wander through its interactive rooms, you’ll see the environment respond to your movements, with lights, colors, and sounds creating digital landscapes inspired by nature, the human body, and traditional Japanese art.
