Japanese Inn Kiyamachi Kyoto

木屋町旅館

While cycling up Kiyamachi the other day, we came upon this amazing Japanese inn.

Multi-storied, with eaves and soffits everywhere you look - it appears like something from a Hayao Miyazaki animated film.

However, it is real indeed.

The inn is located on the Kamo River side of Kiyamachi, just north of Gojo Dori.

This area has seen its fortunes improve in recent years. Restaurants have opened, and the brothels that have opened north of Shijo have not spread south to this area.
