[2023] 8 recommended spots around Kitano Tenmangu Shrine in Kyoto

Introducing recommended spots around Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, which is worshiped as the god of learning and is also famous for its plum blossoms and autumn leaves.
It's full of must-visit spots, including an Italian bar run by a geisha from Kamishichiken, a cafe where you can take a breather, and a sweets shop with outstanding attention to detail!

6. Lunch at Vegesarasha, a greengrocer restaurant that connects producers and consumers

A natural vegetable shop [Vejisarasha] that takes advantage of the warmth of a townhouse built over 100 years ago. Taking advantage of his desire to make effective use of substandard vegetables that have no quality issues and his experience in cooking classes, he has set up a cafeteria at the back of the store. Lunch and sweets can be enjoyed at the tatami room. Many people buy vegetables for lunch and take them home because they think it's delicious.
