The area
Neighborhood: Gion
Gion is Kyoto's famed Geisha District (called "Geiko" in Kyoto). Though Gion's many tea houses and entertainment restaurants are closed to foreigners, Geiko and Maiko in their traditional makeup with gilded hair in full kimono can be seen drifting the streets on their way to and from work, where they fan dance, sing, and play instruments for customers. Gion lights up at night, when the ancient-looking streets glow with lanterns along the river, where weeping willows catch the starlight and the air is warmed with conversation. Groups pass through to populate the restaurants and bars along the riverfront, but Gion still manages to be a mostly quiet district, due in large part to limited automotive traffic through many of its streets. Gion is a wonderful place to indulge in Kyoto's local and customary cuisines, and is best enjoyed after dark.

Great little find in the heritage area of Gion. Lovely little oasis of gorgeously packed chocolates, small cakes and wonderful ice cream.
A little pity you can't buy your own chocolate birthday, they only provide the last week of chocolates for purchase.
It was raining when we left and they gave us an umbrella!

Wonderful chocolates, ice creams in summer, eclairs, and their super popular cha no ka (green tea and white choc langue du chat) a must whilst in Kyoto.

Boxes of langue de chat (green tea butter cookies) make for unique and pleasurable souvenirs from one's Kyoto sojourn. I buy this every time I am in Kyoto. TIP: Malebranche has a small stall in the JR Kyoto Shinkansen Station.
