I went on this walk a little after midnight, the normally busy streets were almost entirely empty, only a couple of cats and people who can’t sleep were about, the sounds of crickets and cicadas dominated the sound in the distance.

Experience the magic of Kyoto with this quiet scenic walking tour near Yasaka Shrine along Yasaka-dori and Sannenzaka Slope, a historic, stone-paved pedestrian hill in Kyoto’s Higashiyama district that leads toward Kiyomizu-dera Temple.

Experience the soothing, immersive ambient sounds of footsteps echoing down ancient stone-paved streets and traditional wooden machiya townhouses, entirely free of commentary or music. Perfect for ASMR, relaxing, virtual travel, and Kyoto trip planning!

🎧 Headphones not required but recommended, recorded in stereo.
