The source of the tasty: near Kifune Shrine, Kyoto

Kifune, Kyoto sightseeing

Kyoto is surrounded by mountains, full of nature, on three sides and has rich water.

Japanese cuisine in Kyoto is delicious since it has a lot of mineral water. Water is very important element of Japanese cuisine. Clean and fresh water make tofu and sake delicious.

It is very humid and hot in Kyoto summer. So people like to go by the riverside in a forest like the photo!

Kyoto must have superb tofu made from the water from the mountains.
