Walk down the small street of Pontocho. It is on the west side of the Kamogawa river in East Kyoto and the closest station is Shijo on the Keihan line.This little street comes alive at sundown(most places don't open till then) and with it's narrowness, it's traditional restaurants and bars with their lanterns, which surprisingly look good mixed with the neon signs, the street has a lovely atmosphere and is like a hidden street as it is placed between a busy street and the river and it is only for pedestrians. We sat and had a beer in a bay window over looking the river as the sun set and then walked further down and ate in a cheap Okonomiyaki restaurant.
