The Kyoto City Official Tourist Guide has produced an etiquette guide for foreign tourists featuring an array of unfriendly locals with tips on how not to annoy them.
Among the tips are to remove hats and sunglasses when visiting shrines and temples, politely asking maiko if you can take their picture, not canceling restaurant bookings at the last minute and queuing in an orderly manner.
