City Tour #2: From Kyoto to Osaka
城市漫遊#2: 從京都到大阪
繼店長Toby Lai第一本全手工攝影zine：City Tour #1: From Wong Chuk Hang to Wah Fu, 這是該系列第二本全新作品，收錄34張店長T精選的攝影作品，圍繞這兩個日本城市的傳統特色景觀。作為香港人第二個鄉下的日本，各個城市無論歷史景觀、人文風景、城市節奏都各有特色。「京阪神」中的京都和大阪雖然在地理上接近，但卻給人南轅北轍的感覺。京都作為日本最著名的古都之一，注重傳統與雅致，以歷史文化、精緻美食和素雅的京町家聞名。大阪城市節奏急促，現代感強烈，著名的心齋橋夜景百聞不如一見。

Following the first fully handmade photography zine by Toby Lai, City Tour #1: From Wong Chuk Hang to Wah Fu, this is the second brand-new installment in the series. It features 34 curated photographs by Toby, focusing on the traditional and iconic landscapes of two Japanese cities.
For many Hong Kongers, Japan is considered a "second home," where every city offers a distinct blend of historical heritage, cultural atmosphere, and urban tempo. While Kyoto and Osaka—both part of the "Keihanshin" region—are geographically close, they offer worlds of difference. As one of Japan’s most iconic ancient capitals, Kyoto exudes tradition and refinement, celebrated for its history, exquisite cuisine, and the understated elegance of Kyo-machiya (traditional townhouses). In contrast, Osaka pulses with a fast-paced, modern energy, featuring the legendary neon-lit nightscapes of Shinsaibashi that truly must be seen in person.
The cover features an embedded NFC chip, allowing readers to access a time-lapse video documenting the production process of this photography zine.
To support Toby’s ongoing creative journey, this edition is strictly limited to 30 copies worldwide, available while supplies last. As each copy is entirely handmade, please allow approximately seven working days for shipping after your order is placed.
