Visiting the popular Kifune Shrine, in northern Kyoto. Along the river, there are many restaurants where they’ve built platforms on which you can dine just above the river, with mini waterfalls flowing just beside you. Many of these restaurants have full course meals, but there is a shop near the top of the road, called Hirobun, where you can eat somen that flows down from a bamboo shoot, and it’s only about $10. Further up the road is the original side of Kifune Shrine (the poplar one down the road is a new version of the original shrine. At the original shrine they have a collection of special rocks that were supposedly used to hide to sacred spirit. It was a bit difficult to get here since there was a landslide which destroyed the train tracks that went all the way up. So you have to take 2 separate buses to get up to the shrine from a lower station. But it was totally worth the trouble!
