Encountering a Thousand Years of Kyoto - I and Yuki - Added

Kyoto, the ancient capital with a history spanning over a millennium, has continually transformed with the changing seasons, while quietly safeguarding the roots of its culture.

When travelers walk through Kyoto, what they encounter is not only its scenery or traditions. They also come into contact with the ways of life that people have woven over generations, and with the “time of culture” embedded even in the smallest grains of material.

In this special feature, "Encountering a Thousand-Year-Old Kyoto," we visit businesses that are working to "preserve invisible culture" and explore the essence of regenerative tourism - nurturing the future together with the local community.

This time we visited Itoyuki, a long-established manufacturer that has continued to focus on using pure domestic silk.
