• Kyoto had been as Japan's imperial capital for more than
a thousand year (794～1868). Kyoto has many new
buildings, but also has many old buildings such as
temples. Some of the temples and other housings are
still kept in the same condition as they were in the
modern days. Therefore, Kyoto is known in the world as
a cultural heritage along with other old cities in the world.
And in some areas in Kyoto, the roads are crisscrossed
at a right angle from many yearsa. Kyoto is a city that
has both new and old culture. There are also many
traditional festivals in Kyoto. On the festival's day the
roads crowd with many tourists.

. The Kinki region is surrounded by the Sea of Japan to the north,
the Chubu region to the east, the Chugoku region to the west,
and the Pacific Ocean to the south. It can be said that the Kinki
region is most well known for the Kansai area.
The name Kinki made up of two characters, kin, the character for
"close" and ki, a character for "capital". Therefore meaning "close
to the capital"; Kyoto. This name has its beginning from way
before the Meiji Era and the establishment of the prefectural
sytem.
* Sometimes Mie prefecture is and is not included in the Kansai
region. When not included in the Kansai region, it is included in
