Pontocho is a narrow stone-paved alley running parallel to the Kamogawa River between Sanjo and Shijo bridges - just 6 metres wide, lined with 17th-19th-century wooden buildings now housing 80 restaurants and bars. From May to September, restaurants build kawayuka decks over the river - one of Kyoto's iconic summer dining experiences.

Walking the 600-metre alley is free and pedestrian-only after 5pm. Spot the Pontocho geiko district crest (a chidori plover bird) on lanterns. Restaurants range from JPY 2,000 yakitori to JPY 30,000 kaiseki. Many high-end establishments require a Japanese-speaker introduction; English-friendly options include Pontocho Robin and Issen Yoshoku.

Pro Tip: Walk Pontocho at 6-7pm when the lanterns light up but most diners have not yet sat down. Book a kawayuka river-deck table 1 month ahead for May-September; the breeze from the Kamogawa drops temperatures 5 C below the city's summer humidity.
