About City

Kyoto served as Japan's capital for more than one thousand years and a major tourist destination. It is home to numerous Buddhist temples, palaces and gardens. It is also listed by UNESCO as World Heritage Site. It is one of the country's ten largest cities with a population of 1.5 million people and a modern face. Kyoto is one of the most Historic and is also a center of higher learning, with Kyoto University being an institution of international renown. In 794, Kyoto (then known as Heian-kyō) was chosen as the new seat of Japan's imperial court. The Emperors of Japan would rule from Kyoto in the following eleven centuries until 1869, when the court relocated to Tokyo. The city was devastated during the ÅŒnin War in the 15th century and went into an extended period of decline, but gradually revived under the Tokugawa shogunate (1600–1868) and flourished as a major city in Japan. The modern municipality of Kyoto was established in 1889. The city was spared from large-scale destruction during World War II and as a result, its prewar cultural heritage has mostly been preserved.
