Learn about the rules of each area of Kyoto. It’s a good idea to find out the rules of your planned destinations before you go!

 

The Gion Area is one of Kyoto’s most popular destinations. It is well known as an area where you can encounter Maiko, but taking pictures of them without permission is one of Kyoto’s big “Don’ts.” Hanami-koji Street has cars passing through, so make sure to avoid walking in the center of the road.
