Sun vanishes, Kyoto’s night beauty emerge
You may probably think where this story may lead to. Oval shaped faces caked with white powder, gorgeous ebony hair and taunting red lips. Maikos and geikos make up much of our expectations when we talk about night life in Kyoto. Let’s not dwell on the most evident. Let’s go beyond what Kyoto’s breathtaking scenery, historical landmarks and various temples can offer you during daytime, and what they can obscurely offer you during night time.

So, where do we begin our night tour? Let’s start with the obvious activity most people do in the evening – bar/club hopping. Kyoto has a lot of unique and vibrant clubs you could ever find. Jampacked with good music of every genre, drinks of every kind and people of every race are enjoying as one within the four corners of every establishment. Nothing is more interesting than heading towards Club World Kyoto – boasting with its 800 capacity space with great sound system for modern dance music. You can also find clubs offering classical music where people can wine, dine and dance to the rhythm of their time. If you are through with this adrenaline pumping activity, let’s now turn our heads to the our all time favorite, dining in style at night.
During night time this place comes alive with people. The Kamo river offers a romantic place for people from all walks of life in all ages. The river’s wide bank are great for walking and strolling, you can even spot locals wearing traditional kimonos walking here and there. One of the astounding timing to visit Kyoto is autumn. The unique autumn foliage paints each trees, shrubs and leaves, simply transforming them to a breathtaking portrait once the Spring and Autumn Illumination starts. Get your cameras ready and take that unforgettable shot. Best spot would be Kyomizu-dera (Kyomizu Shrine). Summer is also an enticing season to visit Kyoto, despite of its hot and humid weather condition. Cherry blossoms all in bloom, adding extra beauty to the lights giving you a feeling of fantasy filled atmosphere.
Go wandering around Pontocho alley. The place may look dull during the day, but wait till the lanterns are lit and sun settles down to rest. The alley turns into a different place of excitement, mystery and joy. Nothing is more fulfilling than getting settled in a table, enjoying your local food in this historical alleyway. You may even spot some maikos here and there, rushing towards their destinations. A lot of cafe, restaurants, all local and authentic makes this place a top list on your destinations to visit in Kyoto. Being surrounded with temples, let’s not forget to visit them at night. Eikan-do Zenrin-ji Temple, Kodaiji Temple, Kifune Shrine and Shorein Temple are some of the temples which unveils its beauty beneath the moonlit sky. Night time is also a special time to visit temples as there are less people and you can meditate well and make most of your time inside the temple.
So, start marking those after dinner hours of your itinerary and pack them up with these wonderful and unique night activities. Make most of your time in Kyoto.
