Description
Pontocho is a busy street that represents Kyoto. When night falls, you can see maiko commuting to dinner parties. Kiyamachi Alley is where you'll find homes belonging to some of those who were loyal to the emperor during Japan's political upheaval in the mid-19th century. It was also the scene of an assassination.
