Lonely Planet review for Kyoto Tower

If you want to orient yourself as soon as you arrive in town, this is the place to do so. Located right outside the Karasuma (north) gate of the station, this retro tower looks like a rocket perched atop the Kyoto Tower Hotel. The tower provides excellent views in all directions and you can really get a sense for the Kyoto ‘ bon-chi ’. There are free mounted binoculars to use, and these allow ripping views over to Kiyomizu-dera and as far south as Osaka.
