“Kyoto with Everyone, How you Spend Your Trip”100 Dream Stories

To commemorate MIMARU SUITES Kyoto Central’s grand opening, we collected stories about people’s dreams for how they would like to spend their time in one of the Karasuma Oike location’s 2~3 bedroom 85m2 rooms in our MIMARU Kyoto’s 100 Dream Stories“Kyoto with Everyone”event.
From the dreams painted by 500 groups both within and outside of Japan, we are inviting 30 winning groups and over 100 people to Kyoto throughout June when the hydrangeas are at their most beautiful.

Traveling from abroad to Japan with family, our guests are enjoying strolling around Kyoto in the kimonos they admire, taking trips to the neighboring areas of Nara and Shiga, experiencing traditional handicrafts and Kyoto cuisine, collecting stamps from shrines, experiencing hand writing sutras, and exploring Kyoto’s natural areas that even children love to the fullest.

Then, everyone is ensuring that the moment their dreams come true remains forever, captured in pictures and posted to Instagram as part of Kyoto’s 100 Stories.
We hope you can find hints for your own Kyoto travels while having fun perusing the posts and comments.

Only About an Hour Away from Meeting the Deer in Nara

It takes about 45 minutes by train to go from Kyoto Station to Nara Station. You can reach the sightseeing spots in Nara from Kyoto in no time.Travel back in time from Heian-era Kyoto to Heijo-kyo.There are even more deer than people here! Children have a blast seeing and feeding the deer in Nara Park.
