Walking the path of history
Walking Historical Kyoto Omnibus Edition.
If you are looking for a book with walking/hiking maps filled with backstory history and photos to boot, then look no further, Mr. Jackson has filled the requirement.
I've lived in Japan a total of 18 years and I've been to Kyoto so many times, I've lost count. But I NEVER knew of these paths.
A lot of history I did not know fills this book. If you visit Kyoto, bring this book with you. A lot of the buildings still stand and seeing them with the history background notes, makes it feel like you know them—you can feel or sense the aura.
Also, Mr. Jackson gives directions of how to get to these walks.
