JR Kyoto Railway

JR-West serves Kyoto as well as JR-Central trains. The hub of operations is of course at Kyoto station. Tokaido Shinkansen trains as well as Kintetsu trains serve this station as well. The Station itself is very modern and beautiful. A contrast of the old and beautiful shrines that ring Kyoto.
