Karasuma-dori
Karasuma-dori is a 6.6 km street running north-south through Kyoto's shopping and entertainment area. At first glance, it looks modern, but the past is woven into the crevices of this charming street. Karasuma-dori has been constantly changing its appearance since the beginning of the Heian Period, 1,200 years ago. Today, it is Kyoto's business street with a commercial building where Kyoto's tradition and the latest designs meld, a well-established shop that sells elegant incense, a temple where you can hear the dragon roar, and other unique spots waiting to be discovered. Enjoy this trip along Karasuma-dori.
