    Kyoto Prefecture Kyoto-shi Higashiyama ku, Shimogawara Munakata 373 Yagakamigamachi
    Bunnosuke Chaya head store is an old teahouse established by Meiji-period second generation rakugo story teller Katsura Bunnosuke, and its symbol is the five-storied pagoda of Houkanji Temple. Even today they offer tea and sweets to visitors going from Yasaka Shrine to the Higashiyama area around Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Popular all the way from the time of establishment are the warabimochi (bracken starch dumpling) and sweet sake. True to the founder’s words “sophisticated customers improve a boring restaurant”  and ‘there is countryside in Kyoto,’ these items carry a deep feeling of style and nostalgia.

    Tasted the amazing honey and ginger Amazake drink with soft broken rice in it - would be sensational if you had a sore throat - real comfort food.

Customers can enjoy sweets, such as warabi mochi (bracken jelly dusted with soy flour), zenzai (sweet red bean soup), or dango (mochi balls), or savory items, such as soba or udon noodles. This teahouse is a popular rest stop for tourists visiting Kiyomizu-dera.

    音羽の滝から買える時に通る茶店。ところてんや甘酒などの軽食が頂けます。観光地価格ではあるけど、特別高いという印象もありません。料金先払いです。

    店員服務都很好, 又準備了茶水給不論是否試食還是購物的客人. 買了秋天限定的栗子味八橋, 沒平時的甜, 很好吃~ 貿八橋以外的菓子也很不錯~ 不過一開始就買了, 使得之後逛街還是拍照都有點狼狽了...

Kyoto Areas

Its wooden tea houses, shuffling geisha, and spiritual sights have seen Kyoto hailed as the heart of traditional Japan, a world apart from ultramodern Tokyo. Despite being the Japanese capital for over a century, Kyoto escaped destruction during World War II, leaving behind a fascinating history which can be felt at every turn, from the fully gold-plated Kinkakuji Temple down to traditional customs such as geisha performances and tea ceremonies, which are still practiced to this day.
