Explore all of Kyoto!

Every year during the cherry blossom season in March and April, tourists flock to various spots across Japan to admire the blooming pink flowers. Among these popular destinations, Kyoto stands out as the most breathtakingly enchanting place. Kyoto can be considered the most beautiful “cherry blossom city” in all of Japan, and even the world, with its pink hues beautifully adorning the ancient capital. The charm of Kyoto’s spring cherry blossoms lies in their seamless integration with the surrounding atmosphere and classical ambiance, especially along some particularly classic routes that exude the old-world charm of the city, making Kyoto’s spring scenery exceptionally stunning.

As spring begins, Kyoto offers not only the pink beauty of cherry blossoms but also a series of lively and colorful festivals. To fully immerse yourself in the elegance of Kyoto, start your journey right from the station and make your first stop at the “Kyoto Comprehensive Tourist Information Center.” This information hub provides travelers with the deepest insights and most enriching experiences of Kyoto. Jointly established by multiple entities in Kyoto, the “Kyoto Comprehensive Tourist Information Center” grandly opened this past April, offering multilingual introductions to comprehensive sightseeing spots and providing a range of tourism information services to enhance convenience and satisfaction for visitors.

The main services offered by the Kyoto Comprehensive Tourist Information Center include: tourism introductions, personalized guided explanations, group tourist services, distribution of tourism brochures, sale of tourism-related tickets and event entry passes, as well as accommodation recommendations and assistance. The consultation services are available in Japanese, English, Chinese, and Korean. The center is conveniently located on the second floor of the modern Kyoto Station, which also features many thoughtful facilities for travelers and is highly functional, providing a sense of freshness and security.

Kyoto’s spring cherry blossoms are at their most beautiful, with several slopes leading to Kiyomizu-dera Temple, the Philosopher’s Path near Ginkaku-ji Temple, as well as popular cherry blossom viewing spots like Heian Shrine, Nijo Castle, Kyoto Imperial Palace, and Daigo-ji Temple—all radiating an imperial richness. Beyond the city center, the suburbs also boast picturesque leisure spots ideal for a relaxing train ride through the scenic countryside.
