    海外からの学生団体を案内しました。無料ですし、大型バスも駐車できるので、事前に予約をお願いして訪問。外国語の対応はナシなので、同行者が通訳しながら進みました。工場見学としては一般的なものですが、コカコーラブランドは海外の若者にも人気のようで、出口のショップでノベルティ商品を買う姿も多く見られました。個人グループでも団体でもとりあえず無料なので、良いと思います。

Its wooden tea houses, shuffling geisha, and spiritual sights have seen Kyoto hailed as the heart of traditional Japan, a world apart from ultramodern Tokyo. Despite being the Japanese capital for over a century, Kyoto escaped destruction during World War II, leaving behind a fascinating history which can be felt at every turn, from the fully gold-plated Kinkakuji Temple down to traditional customs such as geisha performances and tea ceremonies, which are still practiced to this day.
