About this property
Gion Jizo - Comfortable house in great area
This lovely vacation rental in Kyoto is ideal for a young couple, friends or family looking for a modern Japanese house in the most prestigious district of the city, Gion.
Description of the house
Entering off a main street, down a Kyoto-style alley, a Buddhist Jizo statue awaits you in front of the house. Entering Gion Jizo, the ground floor consists of a relaxing open space, two single beds, desk, bathtub and a shower with a garden view, and restroom.
The upstairs has a kitchen, stylish library, sofa bed, futons, television and balcony. From cooking meals to enjoying a relaxing time in Kyoto, Gion Jizo house is a great stay.
The neighborhood
Gion is the oldest best preserved example of traditional Kyoto architecture. Our typically Kyotoite house is located 200 yards from the famous Hanamikoji street, which crosses Gion. This street is bordered with restaurants, accessories shops, craft shops, ochaya shops (tea houses). Spirituality is also two steps away from the house, in the enclosure of Kuenning Temple where the Zen Buddhism is practiced.
