Maruyama Park (Kyoto)
The oldest park in Kyoto, built on land once owned by temples and shrines. It is located across the Shijo Ohashi Bridge from Kawaramachi and straight down the Gion shopping street on Shijo Dori Street. From the Shijo Ohashi Bridge, pass the Keihan Gion-Shijo Station and continue along the shopping street, and you will see Yasaka Shrine in front of you.
I visited Kyoto with a tour group, and the agency arranged for us to have sumo hot pot at a restaurant inside Maruyama Park. The delicious taste still lingers in my memory!
