#FoodieFinds in Japan includes dango , a sweet dessert that is mostly made of mochi so it's chewy. It's so good when it's warm and usually served with tea. It was my afternoon snack when I visited Kifune Shrine. It is served right in the shrine so I heard people ringing bells and clapping while I enjoyed my snack.
Whatever the faith or whoever they're devoted to, shrines have a way of making you reflect. Visit Kifune Shrine and share a moment of silence with the faithful.

You're spoiled for sightseeing choice when in Sakyo Ward. Kifune Shrine is a great place to start here, but there are loads of other interesting spots to check out. Daitokuji Temple, Kinkaku-ji Temple, and Mount Hiei are not far from the sacred place and and will cap off your day nicely.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (17 reviews)
The room is really big with a tatami area where you can relax. You can move the beds around easily. Everyone in the front desk speaks fluent English. It has an old school key lock. It only has roughly 12 rooms. So even though it only has 1 washer, it was empty every time we have to use it. It also had an ice and water machine. It is in a quiet neighbourhood that is close to many shrines. The only minor complaint I have is there was a weird smell coming from either the washroom or the shower room. We had to turn the exhaust fan on the entire time to get rid of it. Also the TV was positioned in away such that it took me 5 minutes to connect the HDMI.
