The charming Kyoto Station South area
Around Framboise, you'll find not only Kyoto’s famous sightseeing spots, but also some hidden local gems that many visitors miss.
Want to snap some photos at the iconic landmarks?
Or are you more into discovering the lesser-known, authentic side of Kyoto?
Either way, we’ve got you covered—here’s how to enjoy the southern Kyoto area to the fullest!
Discover Kyoto's charms on foot
Now you too can be a Kyoto beauty! Kimono rental
At the "wargo" Kyoto Tower store in front of Kyoto Station, you can rent kimonos that will turn you into a Kyoto beauty at a reasonable price. They also offer services such as dressing, hair styling, and photo shoots, so it is especially recommended for those who want to make vivid memories of Kyoto.
If you come to Kujo, try this! Kujo Negiyaki
Arata, a teppanyaki restaurant located 400m from Toji Station, is the most popular restaurant around Kyoto Station. The most recommended dish is Kujo Negiyaki, which uses plenty of Kyoto's traditional vegetable, Kujo negi. It would be a waste to come to Kujo and not try Kujo Negiyaki!
A privilege of being close by! Bike ride to see the morning faces of famous sightseeing spots
Set your alarm earlier than usual so you can go sightseeing early in the morning when there are fewer crowds.
A thousand torii gates in silence
Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine is known as the shrine that brings good luck in business and good harvests. The Senbon Torii gates are so crowded that people line up during the day, but in the morning there are fewer people and you might be able to take the photo you want.
A leisurely morning tour of the World Heritage Sites
Toji Temple is known as the only remaining historic site of Heian-kyo, and was registered as a World Heritage Site in 1994. The illuminations during the autumn foliage season are a spectacular sight that you should see at least once in your life!
