Studio Ghibli and Zen map combines to create a beautiful Kyoto sightseeing map, available at 7-Eleven Japan stores. Kyoto is unique compared to other major Japanese cities due to its limited rail options and often crowded buses. Walking to explore historically significant sites can be an easy and enjoyable experience with a map, particularly when it's an illustrated map produced by Studio Ghibli.
The Ghibli Zen Map is a companion to the current Zen and Ghibli art/cultural exhibition at the Kyoto City Kyocera Museum of Art, offering a bird's-eye view of Kyoto. The map highlights temples, such as Kiyomizudera, Kinkakuji (Golden Pavilion), and Tenryuji in the Arashiyama district. It also includes points of interest like the Kyocera Museum of Art, Nijo Castle, and Kyoto Station.
One of the map's unique features is the labeling of many Kyoto streets, which are rare in Japan. The map's inclusion of 7-Eleven locations aims to make it accessible to both travelers and anime fans. The map can be printed using a QR code from the Ghibli website at 7-Eleven Japan stores nationwide for a 400-yen (US$2.50) fee. The map's availability is expected until the end of the exhibition on December 6.
