Welcome to Kyoto & Osaka

Kyoto is old Japan writ large: quiet temples, sublime gardens, colourful shrines, postcard-perfect streetscenes and geisha scurrying to secret liaisons. While Osaka's grey concrete jungle is no match in terms of beauty, this fast-paced, brash city cloaked in dazzling neon packs a punch with its excellent food and nightlife scene, and locals full of personality.
