Kyoto used to be the capital of Japan for more than a thousand years, but it is now known as the City of 10,000 shrines. Definitely one of the top places that you must visit on your Japan Holidays, Kyoto has thousands of Shinto shrines, especially the Fushimi Inari Shrine and several Buddhist temples. There are also elegant gardens here where you can spend many a wonderful afternoon. The Gion Matsuri festival that takes place in July is considered to be one of the best festivals of Japan.
