    Kyoto Prefecture Kyoto City Ukyo-ku Arashiyama Togetsu Tsukihashi North-west corner
    This shop established 100 years ago is a three minute walk from Arashiyama Station on the Randen (Keifuku Electric Railroad, Arashiyama Line) and is situated near the Togetsukyo Bridge. It produces and sells ‘sakura mochi,’ a rice cake with a red bean paste, wrapped in a pickled cherry leaf. Visitors can enjoy sakura mochi using Domyo Temple mochi wrapped in a cherry leaf with or without bean paste. The sakura mochi is additive and coloring free and if you try it you can enjoy the scent of cherry leaves, the texture of glutinous rice, and the refreshing sweetness of strained bean paste. There are approximately 120 seats in the restaurant, including the dining hall, and set menu meals are also available.

    Kyoto Kyoutoshi Ukyou-ku Sagaogurayamadounomaechou 24-10

    紅葉の季節、レストランはどこも一杯で、気が付いては入れるところに入るのが鉄則。その鉄則にしたがってランチにお邪魔した店ですが、逆に正解でした。鯖鮨とひねり大福で昼食済ませました。どちらもおいしかったです。

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.
