Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: I Never Knew Such A Place Existed I have been fortunate to travel throughout Japan but have never run across a property that demonstrates the exquisite design and level of taste this townhouse displays. One will immediately recognize the upgrades and craftsmanship put into the walls and woodwork. The garden represents all that is Japan and ties so many cultural elements to any visitor. Kyoto is a place of history that can still relate to contemporary and modern trends. Any time spent here will enhance your visit and expand your senses of what is possible between old and new.
Summary: I never knew such a place existed.
