— What You Can Expect —

[Miyama]

Miyama is a beautiful and quiet village surrounded by mountains in Nantan City
in the northern part of Kyoto City. Miyama's most popular tourist spot is
Kayabuki no Sato, a historic village consisting of 50 houses with thatched
roofs built roughly 150–200 years ago. Around 39 of these houses are private
residences which people still live in today. This rare landscape resulted in
the village becoming a Preservation District for Groups of Traditional
Buildings in December 1993. Tourists visit throughout the year to experience
its unique atmosphere.

[Keihoku]

Keihoku is famous for the Joshokoji Temple, a Zen temple from the Tenryu-ji
school of the Rinzai sect. It was commissioned by Emperor Kogon in 1362. The
garden, said to have been designed based on the surrounding natural scenery,
is a calming place away from the hustle and bustle of the city, charming all
those who come across it. In spring, visitors can view the kokonoe-zakura
cherry blossoms (a designated Japanese natural monument), and in autumn, the
stunning red leaves in the inner garden of the main hall. These and more give
the temple a special allure all year round.

[Shops Near Shuzan Bus Terminal]

Shuzan Bus Terminal is conveniently located near shops and other buildings
essential for travelers such as the post office, Tokiwa (the A5, A4 Japanese
black cow beef specialty store), Jigenji Temple, the Haneda Shuzo sake
brewery, and the Roadside Station Woody Keihoku souvenir shop.
