Kyoto is the most suitable city for citywalk night tours!!!

I came to Kyoto for a citywalk in December, walking 20,000 steps every day, ah, Kyoto is the best!!! Accommodation: If you are touring the three cities of Kansai, I recommend staying near JR Kyoto Station For a deep tour of Kyoto, I recommend staying near Shijo Karasuma Oike Gion, Kamogawa, Pontocho are all within walking distance I just wandered around as I pleased for a night I was fascinated by the happy nightlife of Kyoto!!! ⛱️Shijo Street: The main road here in Shijo, similar to Huaihai Middle Road in Shanghai, various brand flagship stores, trendy buyer shops, the flow of people is also the kind that is immobile, just out of the subway, I saw a super large LV, at that time I thought: Huh? It's completely different from the ancient capital style I imagined Suitable for shopping and buying ⛱️Around Shijo: The nearby Nishiki Market, Teramachi Kyogoku Shopping Street, various coffee shops, handmade shops, grocery stores in the small alleys, each one looks very exquisite and charming, you can spend many afternoons, aimlessly exploring, similar to the high-end version of Jufu Chang, Wu Zhong Road Changshu Road 🏞️Kamogawa: The two words Kamogawa alone are a symbol of romance, and I found that people who are dazed and chatting on Kamogawa are indeed evenly distributed, some Japanese social etiquette ⛩️ Gion Along Shijo Street, past Kamogawa, is the Gion area, Hanami Koji and so on are very popular with tourists, mixed with European, American, Chinese, Korean and Taiwanese accents, not many Japanese tourists, the restaurant owner said at night, Kyoto people don't come to play much emmm maybe it's like the Confucius Temple, Quanzhou West Street, the main attractions that every city has, must check in, but there are many people haha 🌌 Near Gion Yasaka Shrine is the most famous shrine in Kyoto, open 24 hours, and indeed very beautiful and grand Kenninji Temple is at the end of Hanami Koji, Kyoto's oldest Zen temple, stops opening at 16:30, must take off shoes to enter, very quiet, can sit on the wooden platform to watch the courtyard dry landscape, daze for a long time I feel that the essence of Gion is those small alleys that branch out, the shops here are very subtle, mysterious, Japanese-style sliding wooden doors are hidden, small curtains are hanging, if you don't look closely, you definitely don't know what it is, if you look closely, you may not know (makes people want to go in more) Is this the charm of holding a pipa half-covered? Anyway, after strolling around for half a day, experiencing the Edo style, meeting geishas, accidentally eating delicious teppanyaki and takoyaki, I happily returned to the vicinity of Shijo and went to Pontocho~ 🍸Pontocho This is the place where "Spring Night is Short, Go Ahead, Girl" girls fight wine, in reality it is also a bar street, a very long alley, all the way is food, unfortunately I was full, there are many good-looking jazz bars, vaguely floating out 🎶 There are also more weird and strange small alleys connected to the left and right, and you will unexpectedly encounter small shops with strange styles One night to explore, really not enough! I really envy people who live in Kyoto for a long time~ 🥩Kiyamachi Finally, I walked back to the hotel along another street, Kiyamachi, this street was full of Japanese people chatting at the door after the party, it must be a food street that locals love to come to eat, try it another day
