Feel like grabbing some drinks in Kyoto? Highly recommend checking out Pontocho. Despite my inability to correctly pronounce it, (Seriously took me five or six times to not mess up the name) It is a small network of narrow alleys with different kinds of bars and restaurants in Kyoto. Just walking down the streets make you feel like you stepped back in time. Honestly reminded me a lot of a scene out of Samurai Champloo, one of the few animes I watched after graduating high school. The restaurants along the eastern side of the alley usually have a patio overlooking the Kamogawa river. A nice place to meet some locals, take a date, or just have some drinks with friends. Check it out!
