tokyo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'foreign capital' is the definition.
'Tokyo' can be an answer for 'capital' (capital of Japan). I am unsure of the 'foreign' bit.

'coming from kyoto' is the wordplay.
'coming from' indicates an anagram.
'kyoto' is an anagram of 'TOKYO'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tokyo that I've seen before include "This covers an Asian city" , "Japanese capital" , "Large Japanese city" , "Kyoto (anag)" , "Capital of Japan" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
