Tokyo,Kyoto,which city is better for study?

I plan to study in Japan in 2011, and first I probably attend language school. I want to know that which city is better between Tokyo and Kyoto or others. I think the experience may be wonderful~ Asked by Yubinz 24 months ago Similar questions: Tokyo Kyoto city study Local > Asia.

I guess it depends upon what you're looking for . . During 2009 I spent a total of four months in Japan across two separate trips for work.

Tokyo is a very modern, youthful, fast-paced city. Most newcomers often comment that it was not at all what they were expecting. Kyoto (and sister city Nara) is the ancient and spiritual capital of Japan.

Shinto and Buddhist temples are around every corner. May favorite: gardens which were designed and built sometimes 800 or more years ago. Every place you look is perfection in proportion and a delight to the senses.

By bullet train, Kyoto and Tokyo are only 1-1/2 to 2 hours apart. Here's Tokyo at night: Kyoto's Philosopher's Path lined with cherry trees. Nara Shinto Shrine and Deer Park.

This herd of deer have been domesticated for more that 1,000 years by the Shinto monks and venders sell you grain cakes to feed them. In the Shinto religion, deer are the messengers from the gods. Sources: I love Japan and can't wait to go back.

Having never been to Japan, I will offer one thing I know to help decide. Kyoto used to be the capital; Tokyo IS the capital. Thus, the larger and more busy city (Tokyo) would be the worse place to go to study for all the distractions available.

Kyoto, with its history (used to be the capital) and smaller size would be the better place to go to study.

Now, probably kyoto as tokyo is no longer safe. Plus kyoto has way more history than tokyo. Tokyo is more fun, however.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
