Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This travel pictorial and Japan travel guide captures the sites and soul of Kyoto Japan's historical and spiritual centre. An elaborate kaleidoscope of craft, artistry and religion, Kyoto is one of the world's most popular travel destinations. Art and design form the weft and warp of this vibrant 1,200-year-old city, home to hundreds of gardens, palaces, villas and magnificent wooden temples including seventeen UNESCO World Heritage sites.Like a Zen koan, Kyoto defies easy description.

All of them share a living heritage grounded in centuries of traditional culture.In Kyoto City of Zen, local expert Judith Clancy presents the most important gardens, temples, shrines and palaces of this ancient capital city and enduring cultural center. In addition to unveiling the city's spiritual and historical riches, this travel book shares with readers the exquisite foods, artistic crafts, religious ceremonies and architectural traditions that have flourished in Kyoto for over a millennium.The city's natural setting also comes into focus as the book guides you along leafy mountain paths and through spectacular parks and gardenshighlighting the best foliage each season has to offer. Whether you are interested in this unique city's history or are planning to travel to Kyoto, Kyoto City of Zen will serve as inspiration and provide invaluable insight into Kyoto's culture.
