Two years have already passed since the great success in St. Petersburg. Now we have the honor to provide an opportunity for the Extremophiles community to gather once again, in Kyoto. The enthusiasm of the late Prof. Koki Horikoshi was a major driving force to hold the Congress in Kyoto. He was the founder and president of both the Japanese and International Societies of Extremophiles. His absence will be felt throughout the Congress, but the organizing committees have made tremendous efforts to ensure the continuation of his devotion towards research on extremophiles. On the second day of the Congress, we will hold a Memorial Session honoring his scientific achievements and contributions to our society. The program of Extremophiles2016 boasts presentations from the most distinguished scientists engaged in various fields of extremophile research, ranging from ecology, genomics, molecular biology, physiology, to biotechnology. We hope the Congress will provide an ideal opportunity for participants to meet and interact with experts from all over the world and serve as a platform to discuss the recent advances in extremophiles research, exchange new ideas and develop new relationships. Extremophiles2016 has received generous support from many foundations, companies and public organizations. The support is greatly appreciated and we would like to express our sincerest gratitude. Kyoto is an ancient city, and was the capital of Japan for over a thousand years. It is in many ways still the center of Japanese culture. Our excursion courses will introduce only a few of the major cultural sites in the city, and I hope the participants will be able to find the time to explore the many more treasures that lie in the city. On behalf of the Organizing Committees, we thank you once again for participating in Extremophiles2016. We sincerely hope you enjoy the Congress and the city of Kyoto!

There are two options. EX-1 12:45 17:30 Kyoto University Lunch (Italian) at Sodoh Kiyomizu Temple Sanjusangendo Hall Hotels Sodoh Higashiyama Sodoh is the name of the former private residence of the great Japanese painter, Seiho Takeuchi. Kiyomizu Temple UNESCO World Heritage Site Kiyomizu Temple is one of the oldest temples in Kyoto, its origin dating back to the 8th century. The temple is noted for the unique style of its architecture. Its main hall stands on a cliff, with a wooden platform in front which provides a panoramic view of Kyoto. Most of the present buildings were reconstructed in 1633, but they reflect the styles of residences of the 8th and 9th centuries. Sanjusangendo Hall Sanjusangendo literally means the "hall of thirty-three spaces." It is called so because there are thirty-three spaces between the pillars in front of its extraordinarily long altar. Thirty-three is an important symbolic number in preaches that Kannon manifests himself in thirty-three different forms to save mankind. Sanjusangendo is a temple with the longest frontage in Japan, measuring about 120 meters in length. The present building was reconstructed in the mid-13th century, and is regarded as one of the best specimens of architecture of its kind. The temple is also known as the "Temple of Thousand Images" because of its numerous Buddhist images. As well as the main image, there are one thousand carved wooden images of Kannon on the long altar. 10 EX-2 12:45 17:30 Kyoto University Lunch (Japanese) at Shozan Kinkakuji Temple Koryuji Temple Hotels Shozan Shozan Kyoto is proud of its kimono industry, and Shozan, established in 1948 at the foot of Mt. Takagamine, has been famous for beautiful kimono cloth including Shozan-Omeshi. You can enjoy lunch in the beautiful garden. Kinkakuji Temple (Golden Pavilion) UNESCO World Heritage Site Kinkakuji Temple (Golden Pavilion) was originally the villa of a Court noble named Kintsune Saionji in the precincts of the present Kinkakuji Temple. The villa was greatly improved by its second owner, Yoshimitsu, the third Shogun of the Ashikaga Shogunate. Yoshimitsu laid out an extensive garden and built a beautiful pavilion toward the end of the 14th century. The pavilion became known as the "Golden Pavilion" or Kinkaku because of its gorgeous gilding. After Yoshimitsu's death the villa was turned into a Buddhist Temple of the Zen sect under the name of Rokuonji. However, the temple is better known by its popular name Kinkakuji or the "Temple of the Golden Pavilion". Koryuji Temple Koryuji Temple was founded in 622 for the repose of the soul of Prince Shotoku of Uzumasa. It is one of the oldest temples and although the main hall was reconstructed in 1165, most of the Buddha statues it houses were carved in the 7th and 8th centuries. The halls contain over 50 statues, most of which are National Treasures. One statue in particular has historically attracted a lot of devotees the "Miroku Bosatsu", with its mild pensive expression, ranks among the best figures from this period. 11 Kyoto University Yoshida Campus Kyoto University Yoshida Campus Hyakumanben Hyakumanben Cafeteria and cooperative store Cafeteria and Renais:Cafeteria cooperative store Renais:Cafeteria Research Bldg.
