Cần Quan Tâm
Shirakawa Street in Gion is one of the most picturesque and traditional areas in Kyoto. This charming path runs alongside the Shirakawa Canal, lined with willow trees and beautifully preserved wooden townhouses. The atmosphere here reflects old Kyoto, especially in the evening when the lanterns are lit and the street becomes softly illuminated. You may also see geiko (Kyoto’s term for geisha) and maiko walking quietly to their appointments. This area is known for its seasonal beauty—cherry blossoms in spring and vibrant foliage in autumn make it especially popular for photography. Despite being located in the heart of Gion, Shirakawa Street offers a peaceful and elegant glimpse into Kyoto’s historic culture.
Tatsumi Bridge is one of the most iconic and photogenic spots in Gion. This small wooden bridge crosses the Shirakawa Canal and perfectly captures the atmosphere of old Kyoto. Located in the historic Shirakawa area, the bridge is surrounded by traditional wooden buildings, willow trees, and seasonal flowers. It’s especially beautiful during cherry blossom season in spring and when the autumn leaves turn red.

5.00Great tour! We had some delays traveling due to the typhoon and the tour operator was very accommodating. Our guide Anthony was very knowledgeable and friendly. He took us to multiple shrines, sites and knew well the history of all locations. He provided ample windows for us all to get great pictures, and provided great recommendations along the way for good food, shopping and experiences. Great tour!
