Kyoto Station

The designer's decision was made through an international nominating contest, which is unusual for railway station buildings, with seven architects such as Tadao Ando and Kurokawa Jiming nominated. As a result of the inspection, the original blog, known for its design of the "Umeda Blue Sky Building", was adopted. It seems that measures have been taken to relax height restrictions around Kyoto Station so that buildings up to 120 m can be built, but the height limit is 60 m and pressure is exerted due to strong opposition to it will damage the scenery of the ancient city. It seems that the proposal was adopted, and the idea of avoiding emotion is everywhere. The huge atrium in the central hall features a semi-reflective front mirror reflection of Kyoto Tower is avant-garde. From the central ticket gate to the west up the escalator square, there are 171 steps of stairs, about 15,000 LEDs for graphic lighting decoration seasonal design. After observing the lights of the East Temple and the special exhibition at night, I stopped before returning to the hotel, but the scenery was more impressive than I expected.

Kyoto Station, the transportation center and transportation hub of Kyoto, is a modern architectural complex, such a large volume in Kyoto is special, including many businesses and a hotel.

Because I think the traffic in Japan is really complicated, the first time I came to Japan, I couldn’t even buy a ticket, because I didn’t know the price inside. There were a lot of people coming and going to the station. There were places to buy things.

I'm in love with the unique decoration of this station. It's quite crowded on holidays and weekends.

교토는 일본 어디보다도 서양인 관광객이 많았고, 정말 전 세계가 사랑한다는 느낌이 확 들 정도로 교토역엔 사람이 많습니다 ㅋㅋ

全国旅行支援で京都に行きましたが、クーポンが使える場所が多く大変便利でした！バスもたくさん来るので待ち時間も少なく、どこにでも行きやすかったです。

very convenient location to travel anywhere in Kyoto. The station is huge with a lot of restaurant and convenience store. A good place to buy souvenir
