Japan Trip 2016: Day 11 Part 2 12 Dec 2016 Mon - Yasaka Shrine (八坂神社), Kyoto

We soon arrived at Gion-Shijo Station. We admired the scenery and sights along or near Kamogawa River such as Minami-za, a Kabuki theatre in Kyoto before slowly making our way to Yasaka Shrine, also known as Gion Shrine.

There are plenty of shops and eateries on both sides of Shijo-dori that leads to Yasaka Shrine. We were lured by the attractive displays and decor into more than one of those shops lol.

After a few side-tracks into the shops, we finally made it to Yasaka Shrine. :P
