- Guests are welcomed with a wonderful guided tour of Aman Kyoto's secret garden

A stone's throw from Kyoto's iconic golden Kinkaku-ji Temple, among a host of other UNESCO World Heritage Sites, this refined resort boasts a unique location at the heart of a secret garden that's nestled amid a towering forest landscape.
