Top Notch walking tour of Historic Kyoto Gion District

Kyoto was once the capital of Japan. Many historical buildings and cultural traditions are still preserved today. Among them, the Gion district is a place where geisha culture and traditional Japanese culture remain strongly present. I take a leisurely stroll through its scenery and atmosphere in the evening. Of course, when visiting the Gion district, I make sure to visit must-see spots such as Yasaka Pagoda, Nene no Michi, Yasaka Shrine, Yasui Konpiragu Shrine, and Pontocho. The meeting point is in front of the elevator at the Edion Building, located at the Shijo Kawaramachi intersection in downtown Kyoto. A professional local guide from the Gion district will lead you to hidden areas that you cannot experience other walking tours.
