Ponto Cho Street, Kyoto City
Ponto Cho or Ponto-Cho or PontoCho, as it is known; is a fun street/entertainment neighborhood in Kyoto City. It is located just before the Kamo River (if you are coming from Karasuma Street), on the banks of Kamo River, nestled between Shijo Street and Sanjo Street. Once the concrete banking was created on the Kamo River, this part of the Kamo River area, about the size of 600 meters long and 50 meters wide became initially a Geisha quarters in the 18th century and then later became a fun street with eating and drinking establishments in the 19th century. The Geisha quarters with tea houses and other entertainment do still exist but they are lot less adventurous than they were during the Edo Period.
Unlike other typical Japanese eating/drinking establishments, which may avoid foreign tourists, these places do cater to foreign tourists generously with english menus and in some places english speaking staff. There are places with live music with great ambiance. The restaurants facing the Kamo River have balconies extending out with outdoor dining areas.
Even though the street is 50 meters wide, most of the area is taken by the restaurants, so there is a narrow walkway and is usually crowded by people and tourists in the evenings. Most of them may be just taking pictures out of curiosity but some of them do venture into the restaurants to enjoy the food and music.
The entrance to Ponto Cho can be easily missed if you are looking for it because of the small entrance to it, so if you are looking for it and cannot find it, asking anybody over there and they will direct you to it.
Kurama-dera (鞍馬寺) Temple, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan
Kurama Temple (Kurama-dera 鞍馬寺), is located north of Kyoto City on Mt. Kurama （鞍馬山, about 1800 feet above the sea level) and is about 12 kilometers from the center of Kyoto City. It can be reached in 30 minutes from Kyoto by car or train. I suggest use the Train (Eizan Railways Kurama Train), to enjoy the scenic ride. Watch my video of this ride to the temple.
The Kurama Temple (鞍馬寺）, founded in 770 as the guardian of the northern quarter of the capital city (Heiankyo), is located halfway up the Mt. Kurama. The temple formerly belonged to the Tendai sect of Buddhism, but since 1949, it has been included in the newly founded Kurama-Kokyo sect as its headquarters.
The trek up to the temple is beautiful and picturesque, although you can take a cable car also up to the temple. Mt. Kurama is the only temple, in the entire Kyoto City area is said to inhabit a rattle snake type snake called Mamushi in Japanese. Coming across the trekkers with the snake is not very common but the temple officials warn the travelers to leave them alone, if you see them.
The main temple is only half the way up Mt. Kurama, so trekking enthusiasts to this temple, can try a further up the mountain trek, which is also very interesting with many little shrines and temples. The trek actually ends, at Kibune Shrine, which is away from the Kurama Temple. Good thing is that at Kibune Shrine, you can hop on the Eizan Railways train back to the Kyoto City. I did half of this trek, please watch my video of the trek.
All and all, if you visit Kyoto city, make sure that you visit this temple.
Enjoy..
