Jasmin Kamogawa Koya is a small private house located in a quiet residential area where Kyoto's nature and intelligence meet, a 5-minute walk from Keihan Railway's Demachiyanagi Station. It is a unique location where the Kamogawa River, the greenery of Shimokamogawa Shrine, and the atmosphere of Kyoto University's student town intersect. In the spring, you can take a walk along the Kamogawa River, where cherry blossoms bloom on both banks, or cross the stepping stones at Kamogawa Delta, which is a 5-minute walk away. In summer, you can take the Eizan train and enjoy the cool breeze on the river floor of Kibune. You can enjoy Kyoto in each of the four seasons as if you lived there. A fully renovated house that has been built for many years. Although compact, the first floor has a living room, kitchen, bathroom, and toilet, and the second floor has a separate Japanese-style room and Western-style room, making it suitable for families and friends. Kyoto University, the famous Japanese sweet shop "Demachifutaba", ramen, cafes, Michelin's Japanese restaurant "Koku", and other famous shops are gathered in this area. It is a great base to get away from the hustle and bustle of tourist destinations and experience local Kyoto.
