Koyto gives a much different feel. First, our hotel room with its private Onsen and its perfectly orchastrated breakfast and dinner degustation menus transports you far away from the hustle and bustle of the mere common people. There are probably more temples, shrines and.......tourists than in Tokyo. But there is not the hurried feeling special to capitals.

A short train ride away, Nara park and it's huges temple and thousands of deers is refreshing .
