4.0
Aburi Dango Jumondo is a Japanese-style confectionary located near the intersection of Yasaka-dori Avenue and Higashi Oji-dori Avenue. The name of the shop comes from the Edo Period, when a plate full of dango (sweet rice dumplings) cost 10 mon (Ju mon). Its most famous item is Suzunari Dango, in which three dango about 2 millimeters in diameter are mounted on each branch of a split skewer and toasted. Customers can order dango in a set of five of the same variety or in a set of five with one skewer of each kind. There are also sets consisting of dango with a beverage and/or other sweets.

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.
