Kyoto
Kyoto was Japan's capital for a thousand years, and temples and shrines still sit around every corner. When the kids run out of patience, escapes like Kyoto City Zoo — Japan's second-oldest, opened in 1903 — wait right in the sightseeing core. It suits families who want the temples without losing the children.
