Kiyomizu Junsei Okabeya
Kiyomizu Junsei Okabeya is ideally located along the bustling approach to Kyoto’s iconic Kiyomizu-dera Temple, famous for its specialty, Yudofu (tofu hot-pot). Designed in the style of a traditional Kyoto townhouse, the restaurant offers spacious, barrier-free seating areas as well as an on-site gift shop. Particularly appealing is the view from its upper terrace, accessible via external stairs, overlooking the adjacent Goryukaku, a nationally registered tangible cultural property, and its picturesque fountain.
You should try the yuba (tofu skin) made from soy milk hot pot here. They also serve Japanese kaiseki cuisine.

Tenryu-ji Directly Managed Shojin Cuisine Restaurant Shigetsu
Tenryu-ji, a Zen temple of the Rinzai school, is part of the "Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto" and is registered as a World Heritage Site. Located within its precincts, the Sogenchi Garden, created by the temple's first chief priest, Muso Soseki, is a pond-strolling garden centered around Sogen Pond.
Come here for vegetarian food! They focus on fresh ingredients and will even adjust the flavors. It's mostly veggie-based and really great.

Akita Inu Kaikan (Akita Dog Hall)
The Akita Inu is a large-sized Japanese dog breed recognized as a natural monument. Despite being a large hunting breed, they are popular for their fluffy and cute appearance. Known for the loyal "Hachiko," the Akita Inu is also reputed for its intelligence and loyalty.
You can experience walking with Akita dogs here—it's pretty fun to feel like you're being walked by these big dogs!
