 People and Culture
Kyoto was the home of the imperial court for 1,000 years, and, since the court had little to do for much of those 1,000 years except for the occasional ceremony, they had lots of time on their hands.
Kyoto's textiles, fan making, doll making, pottery, and sake brewing are nationally known, although the number of craftspeople who specialize in these arts is dwindling as the masters age and there are few young people willing to take their places.
Kyoto is also known as the birthplace of the tea ceremony and Japanese drama such as No and Kabuki theater.

In 1590 Toyotomi completed construction of the huge Osaka Castle, the largest and most formidable in all Japan, to guard the western approaches to Kyoto.
Inspired by the dazzling Kinkaku (golden pavilion) temple in northwestern Kyoto, he constructed a fabulous portable tea room, known as kigame no zashiki ("golden chamber"), covered with gold leaf and lined inside with red gossamer.
Using this mobile innovation, he was able to practice the Japanese tea ceremony wherever he went, powerfully projecting his unrivaled power and status upon his arrival.
