Timeline
16:10
Grab a temaki hand roll and tea at Coil. The DIY style is a fun way to start your evening, and you can take your food outside to eat while you walk.
16:40
Walk over to Kazuemachi. Find a spot along the riverbank to wait. The area is small, so you can easily find a quiet corner facing the water.
17:00
Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The golden light hits the geisha houses and the river, creating a peaceful atmosphere before the evening lights come on.
17:20
Head to Barrier for a drink or a bite to eat. It is just a minute walk away, making it the perfect place to unwind after the view.
