'''Kyoto, Japan''' was the capital of Japan for over a thousand years (except for six months in 1180), and was also known as [[wikipedia:Heian-kyō|Heian-kyō]], until the Meiji restoration in 1868 when the capital was moved to Edo (now known as [[Tokyo]]). Kyoto is located near [[wikipedia:Osaka|Osaka]], birthplace of Hiro Nakamura, and both are in the ''[[wikipedia:Kansai|Kansai]]'' or ''[[wikipedia:Kinki|Kinki]]'' region of Japan.

==About==
===[[Episode:How to Stop an Exploding Man|How to Stop an Exploding Man]]===
After being thrown by [[Sylar]]'s [[telekinesis]], [[Hiro]] quickly [[teleport]]s before crashing into the building behind him. He finds himself outside Kyoto, Japan in [[1671]]. Hiro hears the sound of a few Japanese soldiers, readying their bow and arrows and preparing to attack. He starts to run from the soldiers, but stops after he sees [[Takezo Kensei]] arrive from over a nearby hill. The two sides begin to battle but are frozen in awe as a solar [[eclipse]] occurs above their heads.

==Trivia==
* An interview with [[Tim Kring]] reveals that scenes that take place in feudal Japan are filmed in the Santa Monica Mountains and other outlying areas in California.
