Jointly founded by Kyoto City and Kyoto Seika University, the Kyoto International Manga Museum co-hosts Kyoto International Manga Anime Fair with Kyoto city every year, taking the leading role in showcasing these two fields nationally and to the world. Karasuma Oike Station on Kyoto Municipal Subway Karasuma Line and Tozai Line are the nearest stations. Heading north along Karasuma Street, you will find the Kyoto Imperial Palace, and on the west end of Oike Street, you will arrive at Nijo Castle.
