Where you’ll be

Kyoto
Temple paths at Fushimi Inari Taisha, bamboo groves, and geisha districts unfold across a city of shrines, gardens, and traditional streets.

From the host

Nishijin is the traditional weaving district of Kyoto, with plenty of sightseeing to do nearby. The neighborhood is clean, quiet and very safe, with many narrow streets to explore. Colorful container gardens, traditional machiya, sento (public baths), neighborhood shrines, cafes and shops abound, with surprises around every corner.
Echoes of older times can be heard throughout the neighborhood. During the day you may hear the rhythmic clatter of textile looms and the tolling bells from nearby Daitokuji. Just after dark you may hear the gentle clacking of wooden blocks reminding people to take care of their fires.
In fall and winter enjoy a hot bath at the historic Funaoka onsen just around the corner. The beautiful scent of plum and cherry blossoms mark the coming of spring. The serene temple gardens are their most verdant in summer and offer a meditative retreat from the excitement of the city.
The nearest supermarket and convenience store are only a five minute walk away.
