2014 Kyoto Studies Course “The Joy of Travel: Entertainment in Kyoto in the Edo Period” will be held on Saturday, October 4, 2014!

(6th) 2014 Kyoto Studies Lecture “Traveling in Kyoto ~The Gaze of Tourism~”

Pleasure of the tripIt is often said that Kyoto became a tourist city after the middle of the Edo period. According to travel records, it seems that sightseeing in Kyoto at that time was centered on visiting shrines, temples, and famous sites, just as it is now. At the same time, Kyoto at that time saw a variety of shops, restaurants, and entertainment performances. The existence of these facilities and entertainment is thought to have been one of the pleasures of traveling for those who visited Kyoto. In this lecture, I would like to introduce these situations while showing specific materials.

Date Saturday, October 4, 2014 10:30~12:00
