Limousine Bus, by KATE (Kansai Airport Transportation Enterprise) (2,550 JPY):
- This bus leaves every 30-40 minutes. Traveling time to JR Kyoto Station is about 85 minutes. The
tickets can be purchased from vending machines located near the bus stops. For

From ITM
(Osaka-Itami International Airport), the following is recommended:

Questions
If you have any question, please feel free to write to the local organizers through rc14-oc@ngc.is.ritsumei.ac.jp.
VISA application:
If you need VISA to enter Japan, please see here.
Hotel Accommodations:
We do not book accommodations for the participants, for there are many hotels in Kyoto.
Please make a hotel reservation by yourself. We recommend you to stay near JR Kyoto station. For example, you can find many
reasonable hotels via this link.
Gion Festival
Gion Festival is one of three major festivals in Japan, and held in
July in Kyoto every year. Please see this link.
http://www.kyotoguide.com/ver2/thismonth/gionmatsuri12.html
As the link says, the main festival: Yoiyama is on 14th-16th, but you may see
Hoko & Yama Trial Pulling on 12th-13th, and most Hoko and Yama are
constructed by 10th, so we can see them in the evening of 11th after
the conference. (Now, we are planing an organized walking tour and
dinner in the evening of 11th after the conference. The dinner may be
on your own.)
The festival is so big, and so it is difficult to find a hotel
especially for the week-end.
** So, please book your hotel as soon as possible.
