House Introduction

WELCOME TO
EXPO HOUSE

Kyoto Nishijin

Nishijin is a textile town with a long history. Walking through the narrow alleys like a grid, you will find a nostalgic scenery.

Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter Events

From mountain climbing to ume (plum) wine making to rice planting! Why don't you experience the best of Japanese life?

"Welcome back"
"I'm home"

KYOTO NISHIJIN

We are a Share House with houses located mainly in Kyoto's Nishijin neighbourhood. Since our first house opened in May 2007, it has always been our aim to create not just a place to stay, but a space for all kinds of people to meet and interact, regardless of their nationality, occupation, origin, or age. We envisioned a house where one can feel gratitude for new encounters and friendships, where one can laugh and enjoy with everyone and where one can feel a wee bit sad when someday we part ways again. We are a Share House where at the end of the day your house mates will be there to greet you with, "Welcome back!", and where you can reply, "I'm home.'"
