Old
Kyoto: A Guide to Traditional Shops, Restaurants, and Inns
Tour Kyoto. Kyoto is recognised as one of the most beautiful
cities in the world. It is also the repository of traditional
Japanese culture: still very much alive here. Now, completely
updated and revised, this lovingly written travelogue-cum-guidebook
is for the traveller seeking to find the real Kyoto. The book
focuses on the family establishments that have been active for
generations. In the old shops and inns that continue to thrive
on the narrow backstreets, the visitor may glimpse the old way
of life. Here, a careful examination of action and deed will
uncover treasures: the way a hand-crafted calligraphy brush
is bound, a miniature garden tended, a bamboo basket woven.
Long-time Kyoto resident Diane Durston reveals this hidden world.
Dozens of maps and photographs amplify her vision. Never before
have the traditional ways been introduced in such depth, with
such care, in such a handy guidebook format.
