Welcome to Japan.
Kiyomizu-dera Temple is a temple built in Kyoto more than 1,200 years ago.
Even in Kyoto, where there are many historical buildings, it is an overwhelmingly popular tourist attraction and is registered as a World Heritage Site.
Kiyomizu-dera Temple, which has a saying that “jumps off the stage of Kiyomizu” and appears in famous anime and movies, is a place that symbolizes the history and culture of Japan.
This time, we will introduce a hotel that has excellent access to Kiyomizu-dera Temple and offers a wonderful experience.
I was born in Japan and raised in Tokyo. Currently, I am staying at hotels all over Japan and working as an IT engineer and blogger. I am writing this blog to let many foreigners know about Japan culture, food, and hospitality.

The cake was made for my birthday and was exceptionally delicious. I had the best time with a service that exceeded my expectations.
