TAKEYA TENMANGU(竹屋天満宮)

Built over 100 years ago, TAKEYA Tenmangu is a fully licensed, fully renovated, traditional Japanese machiya, or townhouse, located just 3 minutes walk from one of the most famous temples in Kyoto - Kitano Tenmangu.
Kamishichiken, the oldest Geisha district in Kyoto, is just 2 minutes walk away, and has a beautiful pedestrian walkway where you can see real Geishas walking to their appointments in far quieter surroundings than Gion.
There is no shortage of restaurants and shops nearby, and there is even an AEON supermarket just a short walk away.

Completely restored and renovated to the highest standards, TAKEYA Tenmangu is the ideal place to start your Kyoto adventure.
In this house, you will find the full suite of modern amenities, such as NETFLIX, free WIFI, air-conditioning and floor heating in the living room as well as traditional Japanese touches like tatami rooms and a miniature rock garden.
With 2 western bedrooms and a large family room that includes a Japanese-style tatami room, this spacious house can sleep up to 8 people in comfort. All rooms have ensuite toilets and bathrooms which is rare by Japanese standards.
