Mapping Kyoto Streets
Fushimi Kaido (2012x17)
: 12, 2012
Fushimi-kaido is an eight-kilometer road that runs south from the criss-crossed streets of Kyoto to Fushimi.
In this episode, we go back over 1,200 years to a time before Kyoto was the capital and look at the history and the people of Fushimi-kaido over the centuries.
With shrines, temples, sake breweries, and cruises, this interesting thoroughfare continues to attract visitors and pilgrims, today.
