Hanamikoji-dori Street
Hanami-koji Street is a main street crossing Gion north to south from Sanjo to Kenninji Temple. It is “koji” (small alley), but the street is wide and lively with lots of stores hosting many tourists. The Teahouse district still maintains the traditional ambience in the district from Shijo-dori to the south. The original teahouses were on Shijo-dori and to the north of it, which were gathered to the current southern district in Meiji and Taisho Periods.
Hanamikoji-dori Street really feels like Kyoto. The stone-paved street and traditional buildings create such an amazing atmosphere, and if you're lucky, you might even spot a geisha. It feels really special just walking here.
