40 min
Built to venerate Susanoo, god of the sea and storms, it is the most famous sanctuary in Gion. The central part of the area features a stage adorned with lanterns, where several performances are held annually. This shrine is also one of the most crowded points during the famous Gion Matsuri.
-
Shinbashi Dori
15 min
One of the most charming streets in Gion, especially in the evening, when the lanterns light up, illuminating the traditional wooden buildings along the canal.
-
Hanamikoji Street
15 min
This cobbled street, flanked on both sides by traditional terraced houses, maintains the atmosphere of old Kyoto unchanged. It is precisely in Hanamikoji that the high number of Ryotei (traditional Japanese restaurants) makes it possible to meet a geisha or a maiko.
-
Minamiza Theater
15 min
Among all the theatrical performances that manage to convey the true essence of ancient Japan, Kabuki is certainly the best example with its bizarreness and originality. The historic Minamiza theater is the place that, more than any other, allows you to attend this type of show.
-
Kamogawa Enjo Michi-no-Eki
15 min
The Kamo River runs near the Gion area. Its banks are ideal for escaping the frenetic pace of the city: organizing a picnic, a fishing trip, or simply a walk.
-
15 min
A series of narrow alleys stretch from Shijo dori to Sanjo dori. The high number of typical restaurants offering all types of specialties makes it one of the most fascinating eating places in Kyoto.
