Barrio Fushimi

The Fushimi district, south of Kyoto, is an excursion with a lot of samurai history and a lot of sake - here is the so-called "Fushimi sake district". However, despite being a few minutes by train from the famous Fushimi Inari shrine, Fushimi often passes unnoticed among tourists. If you are looking for a different day trip from Kyoto, which also complements the visit to the sanctuary, Fushimi is perfect. You will see old shops, historical places, sake wineries, water channels and traditional wooden buildings and plaster walls. A whole window to old Japan. Fushimi's sake district is one of Japan's most famous sake production centres. In fact, it is one of the most important in the country after the Nada district in Kobe. Here you will find about 40 sake wineries that take advantage of the clear and crystalline water of the region to produce high quality sake. Many of the sake wineries can be visited and the vast majority have sake tasting. And even some have restaurants to enjoy local sake and shop to buy sake and related products. .
