A hugely impressive small city built around a large railway station, completely enveloping it. Amazing modern architecture of impressive scale and design, with a roof top garden 11 stories up, with views across the city and nearby Kyoto Tower. So many shops and cafes restaurants bakeries etc. even 5 star hotels, you could happily just spend many days here exploring and enjoying.

I love this street, together with Ninenzaka and Sanenzaka. There's so much to see and so much to taste. It is a good place to appreciate the culture of Kyoto all in the one place. It is also full of photoworthy places as they are streets which has preserved from eras ago. Everything gives you a taste of the old Japan. Will come back again next time.

A very nice place if you want to experience what it feels like to be at local Japanese market that is filled of all different kinds of street food, handcraft items, snacks etc. the market is quite huge that you won’t get it full explored with at least two to three hours, especially if you wanted to try street food at different stands, I would recommend to spare at least half day to have a general discover at this fun place! Try to avoid packed foreigners and big lineup, get there as early as possible!

So I went here to find souvenirs and somethings I wanted to bring back from Japan for myself. I was able to find everything here including clothing, snacks, cosmetics, skin care and more. Such a great one stop shop. The information desk is very helpful as well. That grocery store in the first floor is great for getting Japanese snacks at a good price !!!

9. The Cube
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By YTCHENG - Hong Kong, China
The Cube, large center, was linked with JR Kyoto Station should be regarded as the hub of activities for visitors both local and overseas when they traveled to Kyoto. It was large and pleasant to stroll around with various shops and restaurants located on different levels linked by escalators. An amphi-theatre for holding functions was popular for tourists who took photos from all angles. Highly recommended.
