Not found in most travel guides, you'll nonetheless want to check out Daimaru Dept. Store's basement level, a dizzying labyrinth of Japanese food and dessert stands. Inoda Coffee (1F) is great, too!

For guests with children, this is worth a 3-4 hour visit. One of Japan's oldest zoos, it has undergone an extensive renovation and looks great!

Everything Else

This is a less-well-known attraction foreign visitors inevitably love. Kids will love it, too, plus there's an incredible view of the city and a playground afterwards. Be prepared for a 15-minute hike

A must-see during plum blossom season (March)! And look for Oimatsu, a nationally-famous traditional Japanese sweets shop on the one-way road just east of the temple!

Food Scene

As friend Marc describes it, "an amazing bar and apparently the center of Kyoto's subculture scene." Must be seen to be believed!

Gorgeous cafe within walking distance, set in Yoshida Mountain. Incredible atmosphere, but best to avoid peak hours if you don't want to wait to be seated.

Walking around the city all day? First stop, Kyoto's best onigiri (rice ball) shop, walking distance from the house. Forget the bland 7-11 onigiri - these are incredible, cheap, and keep all day.

Not famous, but for our money this is the best ramen shop in Kyoto. Try the shoyu (soy sauce) or shio (salt) ramen with a side of their homemade gyoza and a bin-biiru (bottled beer)!

Shopping

A long, fascinating walk by no means limited to fish-mongers. There's a great Japanese knives shop, a tofu donut stand and more! Be sure to incorporate a visit to Daimaru and Teramachi Street, too!
