Welcome to Tonton Nobu
Owner: Dr. Nobuyuki Sekino (Kyoto University, area study),
Government Licensed Guide (French)
I have lived in Senegal, Gabon, and Indonesia as a researcher, and chose Demachiyanagi as my final home. I offer free guides around the house, such as Kyoto Imperial Palace where colorful wild birds beautifully chirp, the Kamo-gawa where deer and weasels appear from time to time, and Demachi Masugata shopping street full of fun shops.

Demachiyanagi has excellent access to main tourist destinations in Kyoto and is within walking distance of Kyoto Imperial Palace and Shimogamo-Jinja. It is the starting station to Mt. Kurama area or Fushimi Inari area, so you can surely sit on the train.
