There’s more to discovery

Amidst the ebb and flow of life, this is the season to examine the rich tapestry of our individual stories and chart our growth for the new year. As you sink into the intention of expanding perspectives for your path of self-discovery, discover ideas from our slate of 91 stay experiences.

1. Immerse in culture 

Life imitates art at Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto, with design elements thoughtfully drawn from traditional Japanese techniques and craftsmanship. Be invited to engage in culture just steps away at the iconic UNESCO World Heritage Site, Kiyomizu-dera, or traverse a little further to the Gion district imbued with old-world sensibilities.
