Neighbourhood: City Center
No district of Kyoto is quite as representative of its blended nature as the City Center. By day, the covered shopping arcades along Kawaramachi and Shijo Street bring deal hunters and fashionistas out in droves to peruse the clothing, accessories, gifts, and home goods offerings. When it grows dark, the City Center is a hip spot for nightlife, alive with bars and clubs. A trendy culinary scene and an abundance of local watering holes give the Center its youthful vibrancy. In contrast, the quieter areas of the City Center seem a world away, shielded from noise by the foliage of the public gardens and zen spaces surrounding the area's shrines, castles, and the Imperial Palace. These ancient and sacred spots are seamlessly folded into the scenery, providing a respite from the energy of the city, but close enough to put you directly back onto the pulse of the city when you're ready.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It is a great place but it is hard to take photos without any people in it. Climbing the mountain is a good challenge and the view is fantastic up there.

Great shrine, very majestic. There are several areas worth exploring and my own problem was that we did not have enough time! I would happily hike all the way through the tunnel of tori gates.

During our end of Dec. and early January trip to Japan, this visit to Takenomu Imari Shrine was a highlight. It is otherworldly. Our trip was at New Years, which added to the amazing experience as most families visit a shrine at least at the New Year. Many were in traditional garb. It is a hike up the mountain and not an easy one at points. My son and husband and I very much enjoyed our visit and were amazed at the views. Definitely plan a visit if you get to Japan. The tea house at the 3/4 way point is wonderful. We had sake, but many were having meals. All looked wonderful!
