“OPEN SITE” Learning Tour A coordinator who has studied the history and culture of the area deeply will accompany to you during
the tour programs. If you would like to experience Kyoto deeper, or if you do not have a car but would
like to tour efficiently, joining one of the tours is recommended.

Tour to Miyama, the village of Kayabuki
Thatched House, and Tamba with Rich
Nature and Traditions

Tiles, Bamboo, Metal... Tour to Discover
the Depth of Traditional Techniques
Alive in Kyoto

Tour to Feel the Grand Scale of
Manufacturing Created by the Land of
Kameoka

February 16 (Thurs.)

February 17 (Fri.)

February 18 (Sat.)

Nantan city in Tamba region of Kyoto is an area that retains much of its
rich nature, including the Kayabuki thatched-roof houses in Miyama
Village. This tour is a chance to take the time to get to know thepeople, food, and traditions nurtured in the area.

Kyoto has many traditional crafts, but kyo-gawara (roof tiles), bamboo
crafts, and metals are also products that have long been handed downin this land. Visitors can sense the depth of the techniques and culture
passed down from generation to generation and the evolution toward
the future.

Kameoka has long been a key distribution center for Kyoto and has
supported Kyoto's materials and food. The scale of manufacturing insuch an area is beyond imagination. What do we see when we tour
sites that seem to have nothing in common, such as lacquer, cattle
farm, and mortar?
