No, this I never heard.....maybe ages ago it was still considered the capital in the years 794-1869, when it was the capital and the city where the Emperor resided.Originally Posted by hiroshi66
However, one could say that Kyoto is still the capital of Japanese culture...(with its university, porcelain manufactory etc..)
