Step into old Kyoto at Saga-Toriimoto Preserved Street — a quiet lane in Arashiyama lined with Edo-period houses, tea shops, and thatched-roof inns. 🍵✨ 📍 Getting there: Take the JR line to Saga-Arashiyama Station, then walk or grab a short taxi ride uphill toward Adashino Nenbutsu-ji. 💡 Tip: Start your walk from the top down, near Adashino Nenbutsu-ji, and stroll downhill toward the bamboo groves — the views (and photos) only get better. #KyotoJapan #Arashiyama #HiddenKyoto #SagaToriimoto #KyotoTravel #VisitJapan #HistoricKyoto
