中国の文物が殷時代から清時代までそろっている。東京の国立博物館、書道博物館等で見なければ見られないものが京都で見ることができる。 私は書道をしているので、特に文字資料の充実に驚いた。また、文字資料だけで無く当時の1級の文物も多数展示されており、書の背景にある当時の文化を同時に知ることもできる。

Kyoto Areas
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.
