My Trip

Kyoto's night flows along the Kamo River. Start in Pontocho, a one-person-wide pleasure-quarter alley, and continue to the Kiyamachi bar street along the Takase canal — a Kyoto-style night course that, in summer, even includes the over-the-river noryo-yuka terraces.

    Pontocho Alley先斗町

    Alley · Izakaya · 40 min stay

    A one-person-wide stone-paved alley between the Kamo River and Kiyamachi. The most atmospheric night street in Kyoto, where geiko and maiko pass behind lattice doors — the walk itself is the experience.
