Adjacent to the Kamo River, dozens of bars and restaurants light up here every night. The old geisha houses with their verandas overlooking the river, the yukas, give all its attraction to this district, named Pontocho in the 16th century after the Portuguese word "ponto", the bridge. The maze of small streets and the slightly illicit perfume of the bistros or the tiny buildings do not lack charm. During the day, we go there for the pretty stores nestled in the surroundings. A visit not to be missed in Kyoto.

Agréable déambulation dans un joli quartier
Le quartier de Pontocho est situé près du fleuve qui traverse Kyoto. On y retrouve de petites ruelles avec des maisons anciennes, dont certaines sont des restaurants. L'atmosphère et la balade y sont agréables.
