Furukawacho Shopping Arcade
Located near Heian Shrine and Okazaki Park, this small shopping arcade is charmingly retro yet modern, adorned with about 1,000 colorful pastel lanterns hanging from its arcade. The blend of nostalgia and novelty creates a unique atmosphere that attracts both locals and tourists looking for Instagram-worthy spots.
This is a great place for a stroll and some sightseeing, and you can really get a feel for the local Japanese atmosphere.
