Rakuto & Rakuchu
Kyoto consists of five distinct areas. In this special edition, we focus on two - Rakuto and Rakuchu - and introduce the sights to see. Rakuto is located in the central east of Kyoto. World Heritage Site, Kiyomizu-dera, and other famous temples dot the skirts of the mountains. The local entertainment area is lined with tea houses. We map this lively, major tourist area of Kyoto. Rakuchu in the heart of Kyoto is an area where we can feel what life in the city was once like. It has established businesses dealing in Kyoto specialties and artisans demonstrating their skill. We explore these two areas that are alive with the spirit of Kyoto and its people.
