Tetsugaku-no-michi
Tetsugaku-no-michi, literally "Philosopher's Walk," runs about two kilometers between Nyakuoji-bashi and Ginkakuji-bashi. It lies beside a stretch of the Lake Biwa Canal that flows along the foot of the Higashiyama range.
This paved promenade derived its name from the fact that philosopher Kitaro Nishida once contemplated and strolled along here. Now one of Kyoto's definitive promenades popular all year round, the area is particularly busy in spring with the cherry blossoms and in fall with the beautiful colors. Cafes, galleries, and shops selling delightful items are interspersed amid average homes. The shrines and temples add to the Kyoto-like atmosphere of this quiet area.
In this episode, we promenade along Tetsugaku-no-michi where we will see a harmonious blend of man and nature.
