Other walks close to Kyoto Gosho.

Sorted by distance from the start of the imperial palace and the gravel park. Good for stitching together a longer day.

The old merchant grid — surviving townhouses, a brick former bank, and the sake and textile shop-fronts.

The loom-clatter quarter, the textile centre, a star-diviner's shrine, and quiet machiya lanes.

Kyoto's narrowest dining alley, a cherry-lined canal, and machiya restaurants after dark.

Kyoto's kitchen, the covered market, the Teramachi arcades, and a shrine for scholars.
