Attraction

This traditional hanamachi, or flower town, is a cultural district known for its geisha houses and tea houses.

One of Kyoto's most carefully preserved traditional neighbourhoods, this area features historic streets lined with shops.

This scenic pedestrian path follows a cherry-tree-lined canal running between Ginkaku-ji and Nanzen-ji.
