Close to the Gekkeikan Museum and brewery, in Fushimi south Kyoto, is an elegant canal.
It snakes its way near several of the area's sake breweries.
In the past the canal was built so that boats carrying the sake to Kyoto, Uji, and Osaka, could sidle right up to the breweries.
Today it is possible to take a ride on canal.
The area has other sites as well, many of them related to Sakamoto Ryoma, a 19th-century revolutionary who was nearly assassinated at the nearbyTeradaya Inn.
Today the inn is a museum.
