DAY 1 OSAKA/ KYOTO From Osaka transfer to Kyoto, and check into the deluxe Kyoto Hotel Okura.

DAY 2 KYOTO Explore the city known as Nihon no Furasato - "The Heart of Japan." Kyoto, a living museum of the country's artistic and cultural heritage, has been Japan's capital for more than 11 centuries. Visit Kiyomizu Temple, dedicated to the 11-faced Buddhist deity, Kannon. Built on stilts, this UNESCO World Heritage Site offers outstanding views of the city and access to the Otowano taki (Sound of Feathers) waterfall. BLD

DAY 3 KYOTO Delight in transcendent temples and pavilions, including the Ryoanji (Peaceful Dragon) Temple, which is renowned for its Zen garden. Named for the gold leaf on lacquer that covers its floors, the Kinkakuji (Golden) Pavilion houses sacred relics of Buddha. The shogun's samurai could secretly observe visitors from hidden rooms in Nijo Castle, with its thick outer walls, moat, and corridors constructed with "nightengale floors" that squeak to warn of anyone approaching.
