Japanese Tea House- Starbucks in Nineizaka

It’s been opened a Japanese Tea house Starbucks in Nineizaka since June in 2017, and it’s the only one throughout the world. It’s located near Nineizaka in Kiyomizudera.

From the appearance, it looks like a century-old building of Japanese-style tea house, so it seems not like a modern Starbucks.

It shows the block logo on the left side, and the dark navy curtain on the right side.

However, it’s not so weird that put the Starbuck into this atmosphere.

Kyoto in July-Gion matsuri

Talking about Kyoto's summer, we will talk about the three major ceremonies in Kyoto.
One is Gion matsuri which hold by Yasaka Shrine, and it is from the beginning of the Heian period (AD869)
