Japan's old capital for many centuries,
Kyoto retains to this day the nation's greatest
and most glorious concentration of cultural
treasures featuring grand palaces, shrines
and exquisite gardens. The fact that Kyoto
was mercifully exempt from bombings during
the Second World War has bequeathed the
city a wealth of its cultural heritage -
shrines, temples and traditional arts and
crafts.
