Birdwatching on the Shirakawa in Gion, Kyoto. This is the actual section of the Shirakawa in the book and movie “Memoirs of a Geisha.” The teahouses and restaurants backing the stream are the ones in Tominaga-cho. The bird is a common “aosagi” or blue heron. The last few scenes (starting from the lantern in dark street) are not Gion but the district called Miyagawa-cho and Kamo River.
hi!�ん����
Do you know,In general,that Gion consists of four areas?
“Gion shell”祇園甲部
“Miyakawa-cho”å®®å·�町
“Kamishichiken”上七軒
“Ponto-cho”先斗町
I had gone to the Miyakawa-cho last week.
I feel old, good Kyoto in the thin alley.
Do you often go for a walk to Kamogawa?
have a good time!　����～。
Hello to planetkyoto. I think you make some nice video. Unfortunately, when the video is starting to make progressive download it always stops at about one-seventh of the total lenght.
Why does this happen? I never get a change to see all of your nice video.
