2025 Koto Ward Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in January)

🌸 As the sakura season approaches, Kyoto reminds us that it is not a theme park! Keep in mind to respect and share places online that are near residential areas. You are not doing anyone a favor online by intruding and sharing someone else's backyard. There are many public open spaces (parks, shrines, temples, etc.) in Kyoto to visit for sakura, and there is no need for "secret spots". Let's do our part to prevent more bans and rules from being enforced in Kyoto so that others can also enjoy this city in the future. Additionally, the use of wagasa (Japanese traditional umbrellas) at Kyoto's shrines and temples has seen a surprising increase in bans due to many tourists using them for unauthorized photo shoots and disturbing other visitors. If you want to use it, be in an open space far from people and respect the rules of each facility. Do not speak to or stop maiko and geiko on the streets. If you want to take a photo with them, consider booking a tea/dinner session with them. That's all I think, did I miss anything else?

Now I haven't been to the office for over a year and have been working from home every day, I enjoy a delicious latte at the cafe near my house in between work This time, fashionable and delicious coffee at the fierce battlefield cafe is popular. I visited the shop ~ because it was roasted inside the shop, the fragrant aroma of the coffee beans remained outside the shop! Currently, I don't eat inside, only take out, so after ordering please I have it on a bench outside the shop! . This time I ordered an iced latte (¥ 530) + brownie (¥ 450)! The iced latte is better than I expected! As expected, this is a famous shop with shops all over the world! I browsed the HP shop. However, I felt a strong craving for coffee and a strong desire to have good coffee, and I grew to like this cafe even more. ️ Latte with strong bitter taste makes my tired head feel refreshed! the cafe's original hot air grill, and you can feel the depth! Also, I was a little hungry so the brownies I ordered as a snack were delicious! Dark chocolate I love citrus and it's gluten free! The dough is quite moist and tastes like a lot of chocolate was used! The orange is simple with a subtle aroma when you put it in your mouth! It also contains crunchy peanuts in the moisture. The texture is delightful and it's a very satisfying dish~ It's a sweet that I'll definitely want to order again when I visit!! . My friend who went with me ordered a berry smoothie (¥850) + banana cake (¥450)! The berry smoothie had a nice color, but when I took a bite… it was so delicious! Blueberries and lots of berries like strawberries were used, and I tasted a hint of banana in them! It looks delicious if I drink it when I'm thirsty! The banana cake I ordered with looked heavy, but on the outside It's soft and moist when you eat it inside! is a cake with the sweetness of a soft banana! . The inside of the shop is also fashionable and popular, so people keep visiting it! This is a recommended cafe that you must visit when you visit the area around Kiyosumi Shirakawa!! I want to have it inside the shop when dine-in continues~

#getgoing2025 TUTTO 清澄白河店 TUTTO is a vegan sweets cafe in Kiyosumi-Shirakawa. I went there on a weekday afternoon to have tea with a friend. We ordered a crepe and gelato. Both are vegan items on the menu. The vegan crepe is made with tapioca flour, brown rice flour, cornstarch, chia seeds, soy milk and maple in the batter, giving it a savory and sticky texture! It is gluten and white sugar free and healthy to enjoy. The gelato made with high-quality almond milk was also refreshing and delicious! 🏖️BAmbiance/Facilities: TUTTO 清澄白河店 📍Address: 〒135-0006 Tokyo, Koto City, Tokiwa, 1 Chome−3−7 ラフィーヴィル清澄白河East 💞Reasons to Recommend: Super delicious sweets ⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ #trip #travel #traveling #Japan #tokyo #cafe #vacation
