Feel the nature of Kyoto while thinking about cultural figures
This approximately 2km walking path runs along the Lake Biwa Canal. It was named after the philosopher Nishida Kitaro, who used to walk this path every morning to lose himself in thought. You can enjoy the natural beauty of the four seasons.
You can enjoy beautiful scenery in every season, with cherry blossoms in spring, fresh greenery in early summer, and autumn leaves in autumn.
This promenade along the canal branch is a popular walking route, and has been attracting even more attention since the canal was designated a national treasure.
