Kyoto to offer winter specials

Saturday, 30 Aug, 2007 0

KYOTO – The City of Kyoto will undertake a campaign starting in December and ending in March in a bid to attract foreign tourists during the winter months.

The “Kyoto Winter Special” drive, the city’s first attempt of the kind, will be timed with the central government’s “Visit Japan” campaign.

During the campaign, tourist information will be provided through a website (http://www.KyotoWinterSpecial.com).

Among the information will be details of the public viewing of cultural assets (usually closed to the public), the first time such information will be made available to foreign tourists.

Other attractions will include regular winter events such as the “Hanatoro” street decoration by lanterns, flowers and other ornaments.

Also offered will be special services such as the upgrade of hotel rooms for foreigners visiting the city during the campaign.
