We have published ”Tips for safely enjoying Kyoto in the summer”
With recent heatwaves, around 1,000 people are taken to the hospital each year in Kyoto due to heat-related illnesses. To ensure our visitors can travel comfortably, we have launched a dedicated page featuring essential heat prevention tips.
By practicing these tips, you help us protect local emergency medical services. This initiative aligns with the "Kyoto Tourism Moral"—our vision of fostering harmony between daily local life and sustainable tourism. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping Kyoto safe and welcoming for everyone.
