Demachiyanagi Delta
Discover the serene delta where the Kamo and Takano rivers meet. Relax under the cherry blossoms and enjoy a mini Hanami picnic with snacks and beverages. Watch locals and visitors crossing the river on turtle-shaped stones, a unique Kyoto tradition.

Let the brilliant two-storied entrance gate greet you as you enter one of Kyoto's oldest shrines. Nestled beside Tadasu no Mori, this shrine is also registered as a World Heritage Site, dating back to the 8th century.

Dedicated to beauty, women of all ages flock this local shrine in hopes of good looks. Here you can purchase a mirror-shaped votive plaque ("kagami ema") where you could paint your ideal face and place it on a rack.
Masugata Shopping Street
Gain insight into the daily lives of the locals by exploring this shopping arcade filled with small mom and pop shops. Try out different Japanese delights as you stroll the alleyways with your guide.
