What is "Kawayuka" in Kyoto? Photo:Kawadoko cuisine in Kibune, Kyoto There are four areas in Kyoto in the summer that host Kawadoko: Kamogawa River (鴨川), Takao (高雄), Takagamine (鷹峯), and Kibune (木船). Kawadoko are a place to sit near the water and cool off, and are made with Japanese style tatami flooring called "Zashiki." They are also called "Noryo Yuka" in Japanese as well. The reason why Kyoto Takafune's Kawaboko is so popular Your ship is called "Kyo no Okuzashiki" along with the nearby Mt. Kurama (鞍馬山) .The riverbed is built on the Takifune River, which flows right next to Takifune Shrine, which is famous for its power spot. Even in midsummer, your ship is about 10 degrees Celsius lower than the temperature in Kyoto City, and it is also characterized by a comfortable time. It is said that during the Taisho period, people who put floor desks in the river and washed their feet were entertained with tea and food. While listening to the murmur of the river and the sound of the waterfall, you can enjoy Kyoto cuisine mainly with carp and sweetfish. Kawayuka at Kibune, when does it start in 2024? What are the lunch hours? Kawayuka at Kibune is available from May to September.

Advance reservations are recommended if you are coming from far away. Kibune Tea House is open for lunch from 10:30 to 15:00. Kawayuka cuisine is a kaiseki meal, so allow about one hour for each dish to be served. If you are planning to go sightseeing in the vicinity before or after lunch, please take time into consideration. Characteristics and recommendations of "Kifune Tea House" In order to relax and enjoy the riverbed, I would prefer to avoid congestion if possible.I recommend the Takifune tea house that I am introducing to you this time. The biggest attraction of the Kawadoko at Kibune-jaya is that they don't accept large groups or tour groups. The price is reasonable as well, so it won't put a strain on your wallet either. In addition, either side of the platoform faces the river, so you can soak your feet in it. By sampling Kibune-jaya's exquisite kaiseki cuisine while feeling the clear streams of Kyoto, shown at 0:30 in the video, both your mind and body will be at peace. Access to Kifune Shrine is also quite simple. It's only a 2-minute walk from Kibune-jaya. This is another great thing about Kibune-jaya. A pick-up service is available from the nearby Kibuneguchi Station as well, so it's convenient to let them know when you make a reservation. Fireflies in Late June Photo:Fireflies The Kawadoko at Kibune-jaya is open from May to September, but we highly recommend visiting from late June to mid-July. It's also the time when the fragrant Ninose lilies bloom, and fireflies can be seen flying around the Kibune River at night. If you're lucky, they may even appear on the Kawadoko at Kibune-jaya. Kibune is also home to a number of Ryokan (Japanese-style inns), notably "Beniya." It's a good idea to stay overnight after cooling off on the Kawadoko and go sightseeing in a different area the following day. It's also the time of year when Kurama Temple is surrounded by fresh greenery and the hydrangeas are in full bloom at Sanzen-in Temple. You're guaranteed to have a great trip, as Kyoto City is home to numerous places of interest, such as Shimogamo Shrine, Heian Shrine, Nanzen-ji Temple, Ginkaku-ji Temple (the Silver Pavilion), and Kyoto City Zoo.

Enjoy grilled sweetfish and other dishes while listening to the murmuring of the Kibune River. After visiting Kibune Shrine in the morning, have a relaxing lunch on the kawayuka, and then go to Kurama Mountain. Kurama, etc. Please plan your sightseeing schedule for the day in advance.
