First Day in Kyoto, Japan - Arashiyama & Shopping at Shijo-dori & Petting Owls
Blog & shop website: annluuu.com
Kyoto is definitely my top favorite destinations to go to in Japan, maybe even ever! It's filled with vibrant temples, shrines and scenery. There's even tons of shopping too! So for me, it's the best of two worlds. Further details and guides are on my website:
City Walk in Kyoto Japan/Shijo Street from Shijo Kawaramachi to Gion
【Shijo Street (Shijo Kawaramachi~Gion)】
Shijo Street (Shijo-dori) runs in the center of Kyoto, Japan from east to west through the commercial center of the city. Shijo means Fourth Avenue of Heian-kyo, the ancient capital.
The eastern end of the street is Yasaka Shrine and the western end is Matsunoo Shrine. The street is particularly busy with pedestrians and traffic from the east end to Karasuma Street. The east end passes through the courtesan's district of Gion, with the historic street of Hanami Lane branching off to the south, with the famous Ichiriki Chaya at the corner. It then crosses the Kamo River at Shijo Bridge, and from there to Karasuma Street (Shijo Karasuma) the sidewalk is covered (except at major streets) and features several department stores, such as Daimaru and Marui. The center of this area is the intersection with Kawaramachi Street (Shijo Kawaramachi), a very busy shopping area.

Parade of yamaboko floats of The Gion Festival starts Shijo Street.
Tours of Japan - Shijo Dori- Letters from Japan
This is video of Shijo Dori, which runs through two different geisha districts (Pontocho and Gion), through the Shinkyogoku shopping district and shopping arcade, and just a half block parallel to Nishiki Market. It's a wonderful place to spend an afternoon (if it's not raining!!)

Shijo Street in Kyoto, Japan
This is a video of the popular Shijo Street (四条通り) in Kyoto, known for its long, elegantly roofed sidewalk and many clothing stores. The selection of Japanese style sweets is also great. It's part of the general Kawaramachi (河原町) area in Kyoto. I took this video at about 5:30pm on December 4th, 2018. Enjoy!

Kamo River
The Kamo River (鴨川 Kamo-gawa, duck river – see onomastics) is located in Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. The riverbanks are popular walking spots for residents and tourists. In summer, restaurants open balconies looking out to the river. There are pathways running alongside the river on which one can walk along the river, and some stepping stones that cross the river. The water level of the river is usually relatively low; less than one meter in most places. During the rainy season, however, the pathways sometimes flood in their lower stretches.

Ponto-cho
Pontocho (先斗町, Pontochō) is one of Kyoto's most atmospheric dining areas. It is a narrow alley running from Shijo-dori to Sanjo-dori, one block west of Kamogawa River. The alley is packed with restaurants on both sides offering a wide range of dining options from inexpensive yakitori to traditional and modern Kyoto cuisine, foreign cuisine and highly exclusive establishments that require the right connections and a fat wallet.
