Part 2
Finding Shopping
With many remodeling and openings of shopping facilities throughout the years, Kyoto Station became one of the most convenient places to shop in Kyoto. Being the transport hub, many shops implement services suited for travelers. For example, many shops have staff that can speak other languages or have services that are attractive for those in hurry to catch a train. You may be familiar with instances when souvenirs are needed at last minute before leaving. Kyoto Station is a wonderful place for some souvenir shopping.
