Renowned as "Kyoto's Kitchen," this arcade is lined with numerous shops selling groceries and general goods, as well as various restaurants. While it once served as a market where locals purchased premium ingredients for special occasions and high-end restaurants sourced their supplies, it has since transformed into a tourist destination; the atmosphere of the past has largely faded, and it now bustles with international visitors enjoying lunch and dinner. It is an ideal spot for sightseeing on a rainy day. Parking fees are approximately 1,500 yen and are not included in the tour price.

Boasting the tallest five-story pagoda in Kyoto, the temple features magnificent collections of Buddhist statues enshrined within its Lecture Hall and Golden Hall.
