Top neighborhoods in Kyoto

Gion featuring street scenes and a city

Gion

Wander through Gion's narrow lanes where wooden machiya houses transport you to old-world Kyoto. Catch glimpses of geiko and maiko hurrying to appointments in elegant kimono along Hanamikoji Street. Yasaka Shrine's vermillion gates and the willow-lined Shirakawa canal create perfect photo backdrops for culture seekers. Temple gardens offer peaceful retreats from the bustling crowds. Exclusive kaiseki restaurants hide behind unassuming wooden facades, requiring reservations weeks ahead. Artisan shops sell handcrafted kimono accessories and traditional fans until early evening. Visit during morning hours to avoid the tourist crush. The neighborhood is best explored on foot, with the Gion-shijo Station connecting you to greater Kyoto.

Nijo Castle showing a park and a pond

Central Kyoto

Central Kyoto's historic streets are home to breathtaking UNESCO treasures like Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Nijo Castle. You can immerse yourself in authentic Japanese culture through mesmerizing geisha performances in Gion or peaceful tea ceremonies amid picturesque gardens. Wander through the thousands of vermilion torii gates at Fushimi Inari Shrine or marvel at the gleaming Kinkaku-ji Golden Pavilion. Traditional ryokans offer tatami floors and cultural immersion while local shops showcase exquisite textiles and ceramics. The neighborhood is best explored on foot or via the convenient metro stations at Imadegawa, Kuramaguchi, or Nijojo-mae. Morning visits help you dodge crowds and soak up temple bell echoes across this living museum of Japanese heritage.

Kodaiji Temple which includes landscape views, a temple or place of worship and religious elements

Higashiyama Ward

Higashiyama's stone-paved streets lead you through a living museum of ancient Japan. Traditional wooden machiya houses stand beside magnificent temples like Kiyomizu-dera with its dramatic wooden stage overlooking Kyoto. Wander through vermillion torii gates or catch glimpses of geisha gliding between appointments in Gion's atmospheric alleyways. Tea houses serve frothy matcha alongside wagashi sweets, while traditional kaiseki restaurants offer multi-course feasts celebrating seasonal ingredients. Getting around requires comfortable shoes—most attractions involve walking steep paths, though several train and metro stations connect the district to greater Kyoto. Traditional ryokan and machiya guesthouses provide authentic overnight experiences with tatami floors and cultural immersion.

Arashiyama

Arashiyama offers a dreamy escape where ancient temples peek through towering bamboo stalks and golden sunlight filters through leafy corridors. The iconic Togetsukyo Bridge spans the rushing Hozu River while monkeys play in nearby hills. Wander through the magical Bamboo Grove or find zen vibes in traditional Japanese gardens that make you forget you're still in Kyoto. Traditional ryokans and riverside dining spots showcase authentic kaiseki and tofu specialties that reflect the area's Buddhist influence. Catch the train at Saga-Arashiyama Station or rent a bike to explore the neighborhood's winding paths. Just remember to arrive early – this slice of old-world Japan gets busy after 10 AM.

Shimogyo Ward

Shimogyo Ward in Kyoto mixes old-world charm with modern energy in the most delightful way. Wander through atmospheric streets where ancient temples like Higashi Hongan-ji stand proudly alongside traditional wooden machiya houses. The bustling Nishiki Market (nicknamed "Kyoto's Kitchen") lets you sample everything from pickled vegetables to sweet treats while you browse for souvenirs. Getting around couldn't be easier with multiple subway lines and bus routes connecting major attractions. You'll find accommodations ranging from authentic ryokans with tatami floors to modern hotels, all within walking distance of Shijo Street's shops and restaurants. When evening falls, enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of illuminated temple grounds.

Kyoto and related destinations

Between ancient temples and modern manga museums, Kyoto reveals itself through contrasts. Wander through vermillion gates at Fushimi Inari Shrine, where thousands of torii create tunnels of orange against green mountainside. Geisha hurry through narrow Gion streets at dusk, their white-painted faces glimpsed briefly before disappearing into exclusive teahouses. The golden pavilion of Kinkaku-ji appears to float on its reflecting pond, somehow more impressive than any photograph suggests. Nishiki Market offers bizarre delicacies and perfect ceramics in equal measure. Don't miss Arashiyama's bamboo grove, where morning light filters through impossibly tall stalks creating a green cathedral effect that explains why the Japanese find spirituality in nature.
