It is loaded with shops, eateries and ochaya teahouses, where geiko Kyoto tongue for geisha and maiko geiko disciples engage. Gion pulls in voyagers with its high grouping of conventional wooden machiya vendor houses. Because of the way that property charges were once in the past in view of road facing, the houses were worked with limit exteriors just five to six meters wide, however stretch out up to twenty meters in from the road.

The most prominent region of Gion is Hanami-koji Street from Shijo Avenue to Kenninji Temple. A decent and costly place to feast, the road and its side back streets are fixed with protected machiya houses a significant number of which now work as eateries, serving Kyoto style kaiseki ryori Japanese haute cooking and different sorts of nearby and global dinners.
