Personally, I would've liked to see a bit more of the city life in Kyoto, instead of JUST the ancient history parts. I'm moving to Kyoto next year to study Japanese, but frankly, I'm not very interested in history. I'm much more interested in the modern Japanese society, which is part of the reason I'm going there. ^^
How long ago was this documentry made, btw? If I had to guess, I'd say this was recorded at least 7-8 years ago. Does anyone know?
No, the japanese, as a people, don't hate americans or christians. As a matter of fact, every here and there, one can find christian churches. In Japan, religion is a much more private affair than in the United States, and it's clearly not as politicized. Just don't flaunt it. Keep it to yourself, as they do.
Living and particularly working in Japan does present some challenges however. Japan is still very nationalistic. So, to that extent, you'll always be a foreigner, despite your best efforts. If you're prepared to accept that, you'll be fine!
Japan is truly a beautiful country with an intriguing culture. Always something to discover.
Just remember, you're a guest, and always will be. So act accordingly.
This is a very nice video, and shows what I think what a great City Kyoto is.
I have been so very lucky to have seen it for myself.
The film making area, is also worth a visit as shown in the video.
Try and go up Kyoto Tower, I did but I don't like heights however, I thought that when I got into the shop lift it would only go perhaps four floors, well it climbed to the top of the Tower! Shock! But it was not so bad as you can sit and have a coffee and get to see all of Kyoto.
@ausbegosh Im Australian and i love Japan and honestly i couldnt give 2 fucks about the whales so please in future dont say "Australians hate Japan" just because you hate Japan doesnt mean every other Aussie does. You make us look bad -.-
I'm going next summer, but other than that, I have no idea when I'll get to go again... :( And we only get to take the anime tour. I love anime and manga and video games, but I want to see some other sites, too. Maybe that would help me with drawing all my manga...

The Kyoto Station is under construction in this video, so it was filmed around 1995-96.

That's OK. We hate Australians, so I guess that makes us even.
By the way, how are the aboriginals doing?
