Springtime Strolls on Ninenzaka & Sannenzaka

#springitinerary you want to get all those classic Kyoto vibes, Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka are the spots to hit, especially in spring. These charming slopes near Kiyomizu-dera Temple are like walking through a postcard of traditional Japan, with wooden shops, tea houses, and cute little souvenir stores lining the narrow streets. When the cherry blossoms or maple leaves start showing off, it’s basically peak Insta moment. The whole area feels super chill and old-school, like stepping back in time but with way better snacks. You can sip on matcha, grab some mochi, and just wander without a care. It’s touristy but still cozy, and the vibe is totally worth it. Plus, the views from up near Kiyomizu-dera? Gorgeous. Perfect for a laid-back spring day filled with sweet streets and even sweeter memories.
