Possibly the most famous street in all of a Kyoto! Prepare to get here at 5am if you hope of getting an empty shot with the pagoda in the back (as you can see on the picture, I was not in the mood for that early wake-up call.) Make sure to visit the famous traditional Starbucks here and buy some souvenirs in the small shops.

A myth tells that if you slip and fall on Ninenzaka, you will be dead in 2 years, so tread very carefully!
