Detailed instruction for transportation and additional information in Kyoto
Kyoto Station is wide and complicated. Detailed map of Kyoto Station and
instructions with snapshots for transfer from (A) Kansai-airport Ltd. Express
HARUKA and (B) Shinkansen to Subway are posted on the following web site.
Please do not use the English map of Kyoto Station in the website of JR
Central in which the sign of gates is different from what you will see
at the station. You will also find the instruction to walk from Subway
Kokusai-kaikan station to the Kyoto International Conference Center (ICC
Kyoto).
