    Kyoto Prefecture Kyoto-shi Higashiyama-ku Sanjo street Shirakawa-bashi East 4-chome Nakano-machi 208
    An okonomiyaki restaurant located a 10-minute walk from Kiyomizu-Gojo Station on the Keihan Main Line. Redolent with the flavors of a dashi broth made with skipjack tuna flakes and kombu kelp, the shop's okonomiyaki is crisp on the outside and light and airy on the inside. A favorite of taxi drivers as well, the shop is frequented by tourists and students on school trips. The shop offers an abundant variety of okonomiyaki, yakisoba, and teppanyaki dishes, with the Negikake-mix-tama (egg and green onion okonomiyaki) as well as the Tonpei covered with a tangy ponzu sauce are particularly recommended. The restaurant has tatami mat seating, making it great for brining children to.

    We asked our hotel receptionist to make a reservation for us at this popular and smallish okonomiyaki restaurant. The menu had English translations and we selected a couple okonomiyaki pancakes to...

    カウンター席の他に、座敷になっているテーブルが4つほどありました。 お好み焼きの他に一品メニューも充実していました。 海鮮そばとミックスお好み焼き、ホタテ、アスパラバターが美味しかったです。 近くに学校があるせいか?、外国人講師のグループも来ていてその日は国際色豊かな客層でした。

    After the very busy Golden Pavillion Daisen-in was a very quiet relaxing place. A Zen temple with beautiful rockgardens. Worth a visit.

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.
