It is very hot and there is a lot of rain.  In general, it seems like a very safe and peaceful city.  It's just a little small and there are few activities to do.  I'm a little bored alone.ı hope ı meet someone

Japan, located in East Asia, is an extraordinarily beautiful island nation famed for its diverse blend of centuries-old traditions and cutting-edge technology. Known for its impressive cluster of skyscrapers in Tokyo, the ancient temples and geishas of Kyoto, the mesmerizing cherry blossoms in Hakone, and the delectable sushi and ramen, Japan offers a wealth of unrivaled experiences. The country is renowned for its impressive Shinkansen, or bullet trains, that deliver travelers across its four main islands while providing breathtaking scenic views. Japan also stands out for its respect for nature, which is reflected in its numerous stunning gardens and gorgeous Mount Fuji, a dormant volcano and the country's highest peak.

Japan

Kyoto, Japan's ancient capital, is nestled in a valley on the Honshu Island, surrounded by picturesque mountains and lush greenery. Known for its beautiful blend of tradition and modernity, Kyoto offers an enchanting array of cultural heritage sites, tranquil temples, and enthralling gardens. Visitors can explore the famous Fushimi Inari Shrine with its vermilion torii gates, the awe-inspiring Kinkaku-ji, also known as the Golden Pavilion, and the atmospheric Arashiyama Bamboo Grove. The city is also renowned for its traditional tea ceremonies, sublime kaiseki cuisine, ancient festivals, geisha culture in Gion district, and exquisite artisan crafts. This fascinating city's rich history and enduring customs make it a must-visit destination for any travel enthusiast.

I feel very safe, but I don't like the food. Tokyo's food is much better than Kyoto's. Kyoto is a very quaint city with not much activity. I am staying in a hostel by myself and haven't had much opportunity to meet anyone. However, the people of Kyoto are nice.

Fantastic! Best first solo travel experience. Cheap food, amazing culture, extremely friendly Japanese folks ready to help you out. Many of them speak English too! I never felt unsafe as a petite female.
