Sightseeing
Another unmissable place in Kyoto is Kamo-gawa river. This is probably the most famous and arguably the most popular river in Kyoto.
Kamo River runs on about six miles from Demachiyanagi northeast of the city (towards Shimogamo shrine) to the south, not far from Fushimi Inari, where it joins Yodo-gawa. In the west of the city, it has a less popular equivalent: Katsura-gawa.
Built on a huge groundwater, Kyoto shows with Kamogawa an impressive and very enjoyable water area. All along, locals and tourists walk or ride their bike or dwell a moment on the grass that borders the river.
