The city of Kyoto is a must visit on a trip to Japan and boasts "graceful geishas and towering temples", it has been noted.

Writing for The Telegraph, Simon Horsford said that it is "little wonder" that the city is seen as the cultural heart of the Asian nation as it is filled with ancient hotspots including the Golden Pavilion, Kinkaku-ji, and the Silver Pavilion, Ginkaku-ji.

He said that while the city is very much "old Japan", there are still areas of "the cutting edge", with buildings such as the National Museum of Modern Art showing the city"s willingness to embrace modern life.

Kyoto train station is a sight in itself, with strong futuristic lines and striking architectural style awaiting people staying in local hotels.

The seven storey building is also home to an Isetan department store, shopping centre and many restaurants, as well as an outside staircase and escalator offering great views of the station floor below.
