“Among posters, calendars or pamphlets printed by Japanese travel agencies, Kyoto gardens became truly “The cover face” of Japan…Anyway, you visit these gardens, you can find your own “relaxing place” in Kyoto, but enjoying evening garden relax in the middle of Kyoto is one of the most beautiful experience you can get in this city…”
