Description
Chabad of Kyoto is the first and only synagogue in Kyoto, Japan. It is a spiritual lighthouse for Jews and non-Jews in Kyoto and its surrounding cities. It was established in the summer of 2016 by Rabbi Binyomin Edery, director of Chabad of Japan. (Chabad Tokyo of Rabbi Binyomin is here: https://www.chabadjapan.org/). Since then, Chabad Kyoto has warmly welcomed not only Jewish people, but everyone in Kyoto and the surrounding area, and has served as a place for spiritual healing, a place where people can gather in harmony, and a place to share the living wisdom of Judaism.
It is currently administrated by Rabbi Mordechai Grumach in collaboration with Rabbi Binyomin. We support Shabbat and Holidays with services, lively gatherings and erudite wisdom.
Whether you’re traveling through, or making Japan your home, we hope you will join us for good kosher food and spiritual times. People who come often find Chabad Kyoto to be a spiritual refuge right in the middle of West Japan.
