Kamo River Path Construction

Kamo River Path京都鴨川道整備

Work on the path on the bank of the Kamo River appears to be complete.

The new, smoother service extends on the west side of the river - the downtown side - almost to Shijo Bridge (the picture at right was taken several hundred meters north of Shijo and is looking north to the Sanjo Bridge in the distance). South of that and it reverts to the old bumpy surface.

This means that one can cycle, jog, or stroll on a smooth surface - with the some variation (hard sand, paving stone, etc.) - from Shijo to the far north of the city.

If one crosses at Kitayama, or another bridge, to the opposite bank (east side) it is a car-free ride all the way to Kamigamo Shrine.
