Continuing the journey to the local. This is Sanjo in Kyoto, once depicted as the starting/ending point of the Tokaido Fifty-Three Stations. A place where people and things from all over the country gathered and created new culture. We embrace this context and collaborate with local players across Japan to develop various content. We hope our activities will bring new inspiration to the city of Kyoto, and provide an opportunity for visitors to embark on a journey to experience the charm of Japan's local areas. <About the existing building> This building is the former Nihon Seimei Kyoto Sanjo Building, partially registered as a tangible cultural property. Construction began in 1912 (Meiji 45) and was completed in 1914 (Taisho 3). The design of the cultural property part of the building was by Tatsuno & Kataoka Architectural Office, led by Tatsuno Kingo, known for Tokyo Station. Its style is well-reflected in features such as the stone-clad exterior.What remains now is one span of the building facing Yanaginobaba Street, which was preserved when the rest was demolished in 1983 (Showa 58), and an office building was later added.
