Drinks & Nightlife
"GION"
The bricked streets are lined with old wooden houses to give a traditional feel to the neighbourhood.
We were there at night and it looked like if the red lanterns are lit the the shop is open. Nice place to wander.
This is also a place where you can catch a glimpse of the ever evasive geisha.
