breakfast
Restaurant on the first floor of the hotel. The omelettes are especially freshly made and delicious. There were many families with small children. (I wonder if this hotel is popular among families?)
Yukata Rental
Since we were in Kyoto, we rented yukata for a day, which cost about 3,000 yen until 6:00 p.m. There are quite a variety of yukata. There are quite a variety of yukata available.Also, it's quite nice that they offer luggage storage!(*^▽^*)
I had to wrap a towel around my waist when I put on the yukata, but I was very sweaty there. Also, I was not used to wearing this kind of clothing, so it was quite difficult to walk.
sasayaiori
Since it was morning, there was only one other customer and we were able to relax. The interior of the store is stylish with a Japanese atmosphere. This time, I ordered a kinako latte.It is very tasty when you add the gum syrup that comes with it!(Without gum syrup, it tastes like soybean flour flavored milk.)
taxi
I took a cab from Kyoto Station to Hanamikoji. There was a cab queue at the station, but the turnover rate was good, so I was able to get on the cab surprisingly quickly!(*´▽｀*).(They come at a rate of one every 5 seconds 😎). However, I am disappointed that the cab driver this time had a bad attitude!"(-""-)".
imopippi
This time I ordered 1mm silk thread purple sweet potato and ice cream.This is interesting because you get to see the process of pouring the potatoes over the ice cream live. There are many of these stores outside of Kyoto, so please visit them!(*'ω'*).The taste is delicious, with a strong sweet potato flavor. It is also surprisingly hearty.
yasaka tower
It is a place of scenery often seen in pictures. Therefore, there are many people. Also, be aware that trucks sometimes pass by.
Tsuruya Chousei
Their signature item seems to be "soda sometimes kuzu ice cream", which is a drink with iced kuzumochi in it. I thought it might not be enough, so I ordered a large size, but I was surprised at how much it was!( ﾟДﾟ).There seemed to be only one waitress, and she seemed to be having a hard time.(;´Д｀).Accounting is basically self-checkout, but only PayPay is not self-checkout.
Ninenzaka
This was the most crowded place, and you can feel the streets of Kyoto.There is also a Starbucks in a traditional two-story Japanese house that is over 100 years old.At a glance, it is hard to tell that it is a Starbucks. It is stylish and blends in with the landscape(*'ω'*).It is moved to the far left of the photo.
Yasaka Koshindo
It is a small shrine located near Yasaka-no-to.Many amulets, called "kukuri monkeys," are tied around the temple, making it colorful and photo-worthy.Therefore, it is crowded and has a high population density.
MATCHA GARDEN
It is a fluffy shaved ice store. There are two types of shaved ice: in-store and take-out, and I chose the take-out option because it was 200 yen cheaper.
※When eating in the restaurant, the waiter will decide where to sit, so be careful not to sit without permission.
It was very crowded and took about 20 minutes to order(;´Д｀).There were about 6 flavors, but this time I chose Uji green tea. It is not unnecessarily sweet and you can enjoy the taste of matcha(*´▽｀*).It looks like a lot of food in the picture, but since it is fluffy, it is surprisingly easy to gobble up.Also, the speed of melting is incredibly fast. (I was only taking a few pictures and about 1/3 of it had melted.;つД｀).)
izumoya
The restaurant is located along the Kamo River. I ordered a bowl of unagi (eel) rice topped with a bowl of rice topped with a bowl of eels. I hadn't had eel in about 10 years, but it was still delicious!( *´艸｀).(I had eaten more than usual that day and was full halfway through the meal(/ω＼)).The view is very nice as it is along the Kamo River.
Sasora EAST
This restaurant is also located along the Kamo River. There is a terrace where you can enjoy your meal while looking at the Kamo River. I was full, so I ordered a pineapple juice (600 yen). My friend ordered a strawbaked rice cake, etc., which was quite stylish.
※From 5:00 p.m., it will be a Bar and a seating fee will be charged.
※Note that there is a gap in the floor of the terrace seats (I dropped 300 yen...)
Kurama
This store is located in the restaurant area in Kyoto Station. I had some time before the bullet train, so I stopped by. There are four kinds of plum wine, and I tried three of them. The Hanneri Kyo Umeshu was a light plum wine, the Uji Gyokuro Umeshu was a rich tasting plum wine, and the Yatsuhashi Umeshu was thicker tasting than the Uji Gyokuro Umeshu. I liked Uji Gyokuro Umeshu the best.(*'ω'*)
Finally.
This time I went to USJ and Kyoto, it was my first visit to USJ, so it was all new experiences and fun!(*^▽^*).There are many places in Kyoto that I have yet to visit, so I would like to go around next time I visit!(^^)/
