A town where the Takasegawa River flows and the atmosphere of Kyoto is alive.In a good location right next to Shijokawaramachi, you can enjoy a hidden shop and seasonal scenery.

[The best of Kyoto in everyday life] A luxurious time immersed in the Takasegawa River and the atmosphere of Kyoto Located just a stone's throw from Shijo Kawaramachi, Kyoto's most glamorous area, this neighbourhood is a true 'grown-up hideaway' where the convenience of the city and the tranquillity of the ancient capital coexist. The biggest attraction is the Takase River, which flows gently through the city.In spring, the beautiful cherry trees form a tunnel, and in summer, the lush willows sway in the wind along this river, a walking path where your mind is relaxed just by walking.At night, the warm lights from the traditional townhouses are reflected on the water, giving it a different, more magical appearance than during the day. There is no end to the enjoyment of food.From a long-established Kyoto restaurant to a stylish Italian restaurant in a renovated townhouse and a coffee shop with its own roasted coffee, there are many famous restaurants that stimulate the senses.Kyoto's oldest flower district, Miyagawa-cho, and the Kamogawa River are also nearby, and if you're lucky, you might see a maiko on her way to her lessons. It is also within walking distance of major tourist attractions such as Kiyomizu Temple, Gion and the Nishiki Market.From this place where the 'present' and 'history' of Kyoto intersect, why not discover a special Kyoto that is not in the guidebooks, as if you were living there?
