Concept-“Traveling through Space and Time “
<\/b>Kyoto City has a history of 1,200 years, since the founding of Heiankyo, and it is Japan\u2019s most popular tourist destination in Japan, visited by more than 50 million tourists every year. The Toji area is a quiet area of Kyoto, where the symbol of Kyoto and one of the World Heritage sites, the Five Storied Pagoda resides with elegance and beauty just 5 minutes away from the hotel. Toji is the only surviving remains of Heiankyo and this temple was entrusted to Kukai, a Japanese Buddhist monk, who returned to Japan after studying Buddhism during the Tang dynasty. Find peace and calm within this ancient city as you take a break in Kyoto or spend a relaxing time at a temple with a Buddha statue.\u00a0
