Sobre Kioto

Kioto fue la capital imperial de Japón durante más de un milenio, conservando una gran concentración de sitios declarados Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO dentro de su trazado urbano. La arquitectura de la ciudad se define por las tradicionales casas de madera *machiya* contrastando con estructuras imponentes como el dorado *Kinkaku-ji* y el escenario de madera de *Kiyomizu-dera*. Los visitantes recorren paisajes que van desde las extensas puertas *Senbon Torii* hasta los serenos tallos del Bosque de Bambú de Arashiyama. Sigue siendo el corazón cultural de la nación, donde la preservación de sitios históricos como el Castillo de Nijō ofrece un vínculo directo con la era shogunal.

Conviene saber

  1. 1

    Kioto estuvo exenta de bombardeos atómicos durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial debido a su inmenso valor cultural, una decisión impulsada en gran parte por el secretario de Guerra de EE.UU., Henry L. Stimson.

  2. 2

    La ciudad aplica una estricta ordenanza de altura de edificios para proteger la integridad visual de su fondo montañoso y el skyline tradicional.

  3. 3

    El trazado de las calles de Kioto sigue un patrón de cuadrícula rígida establecido en el año 794 d.C., reflejando el diseño de la antigua capital china de Chang'an.

  4. 4

    Es sede del *Gion Matsuri*, un festival que dura un mes y se celebra anualmente desde el año 869.
