Japanese Annex "Kasuien", which celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2020, was reopened on July 17.The layout of the ridges and copper shingle roofs across the undulating topography combine with the endless overlapping eaves to create a rhythmical space that leaves the visitor spellbound.Step through the impressively proportioned historical hinoki bark thatch gate into a haven of serenity where the noise and hubbub of everyday life seems worlds away. The influence of Togo Murano's "Japanese modernist" design aesthetic is clear to see.Togo Murano's design for Kasui-en, completed in 1959, includes a white sand courtyard garden inspired by the gardens of Daigoji Temple Sanbo-in in Kyoto. The distinctive gourd and cup shaped lawn features use the water that flows from the rock formation waterfall to represent sake flowing into a cup.A natural hot spring is drawn into the bath in each room to provide a luxurious and relaxing time and space, and relieve the weariness of your travel.Experience the unique wellness of The Westin Miyako Kyoto, where you can relax both physically and mentally.
