Kyoto Lane

Very narrow lane Kyoto京都路地

Kyoto is full of surprises, even for long-time residents.

This narrow lane, which snakes ever so slightly, is a stone's throw from Shijo - Kawaramachi.

That is the main intersection in downtown Kyoto, and is thronged with people day and night.

However, a several minute walk brings one to this tight alley with bars and restaurants and boutiques.

Arriving early one Sunday morning, we cycled the alley. Slowly.

A few shops were just starting to show life, with one chef arranging his kitchen for the coming day.
