An inbound gala dinner to mark the finale of Kyoto sightseeing at an important cultural property

Purpose: A gala dinner for overseas customers on a Kyoto tour
Number of people: Approximately 40 people
Theme: A party that combines Japanese and Western styles, suitable for the finale of Kyoto sightseeing

● Participants who have completed their sightseeing in Kyoto gather at FUNATSURU KYOTO KAMOGAWA RESORT
● Aperitif party on the top floor terrace before the meal
● Move to the main party venue inside the building and start dinner

At the aperitif party on the top-floor terrace, the participants enjoyed stunning views of Higashiyama and the Kamo River, and reminiscences about Kyoto.
Given that the guests had already experienced traditional Japanese etiquette and cuisine, we opted to serve Kyoto French cuisine for dinner.
The combination of the flavors and party style familiar to overseas participants, and the Japanese atmosphere unique to a tangible cultural property, made it a special and worthy finale to their Kyoto sightseeing.

• Decisive factors and reasons for choosing the venue

  ① A venue that offers a distinctly Japanese atmosphere but is not a traditional Japanese dining setting or tatami room.
  ② Cuisine that is easily enjoyed by international guests.
  ③ Ability to accommodate gluten-free dietary needs.

  

• From the person in charge

  After a full day of Kyoto sightseeing, guests enjoyed an evening party that included a gala dinner. The event began with an aperitif party on the top floor terrace, offering stunning views of Higashiyama and the Kamo River. Since the guests had already experienced traditional Japanese food and etiquette during their tour, the dinner featured a Kyoto French standing party that combined Japanese and Western styles while maintaining a distinctly Japanese atmosphere.
  
  Addressing dietary restrictions is common at inbound events, but the gluten-free options were well received, providing peace of mind.
  
  FUNATSURU KYOTO KAMOGAWA RESORT, a tangible cultural property that Kyoto proudly boasts, provided a fitting backdrop with its blend of Japanese style and architectural beauty, making for a special finale to the Kyoto tour.
