More Info

◆Nishiki Market
If you need a break from temple hopping, Nishiki Market is a great place to visit. Located in the center of the town, Nishikikoji-dori, 400 meters long, is a street lined with around 130 shops selling Kyoto's specialties, such as Kyoto vegetables, dried and pickled foods, fish, and more. That's why it is called "the kitchen of Kyoto". The variety of foods on display is staggering and the frequent cries of Irashaimase (Welcome!) are heart-warming.

◆Yuba(soya milk) Senmaruya
Yuba (soya milk) Senmaruya is a soya milk shop with a history of 210 years.
A soya milk is not only used for home cooking in Kyoto, but also used for Shojin ryori (vegetarian dish) or Kaiseki ryori (traditional Japanese meal brought in courses)  It is possible to watch video of work process and listen to explanation.

◆Nishiki Tenmangu Shrine
Nishiki Tenmangu Shrine is located near the end of Nishiki Market which intersects Teramachi Kyogoku Shopping Street. It is good to rest for a while because there is springwater in a small precinct. Sugawarano Michizane is enshrined for grace of academics and business.

◆Teramachi Kyogoku Street
The traditional Japanese culture remains on this street such as a woodblock painting shop “Daishodo”. On the east side of Teramachi Street, a new road was built after they arranged precincts of temples. Souvenirs shops, restaurants and fashion shops are mixed on this street. 
                 
◆Teramchi Street
The street is an arcade containing an assortment of shops and services, both traditional such as Kyukyodo, an incense burner shop, old books shops etc. and modern shops.  The street’s name literally means “Temple Town”. It reflects the large number of temples moved there during Toyotomi Hideyoshi’s remodeling of Kyoto in the 16th C.
