Pontocho Street

Pontocho is a narrow street about 500 meters long. It is one of Kyoto's geisha districts. There are mainly restaurants on both sides of the street. Many of the shops along the Kamo River have signs saying "kawadoko" (traditional Japanese-style dining) because you enter the shops from Pontocho. The street is typical of Kyoto.
