How about having a colorful cream soda and a hot pancake at Shin-Setsu after your lunch?

This café is famous for having 22 different types of cream soda.

The éclair is especially popular. There is a lot of matcha cream inside of it, and it is something matcha fans cannot leave untasted. They also offer lunch, so this may be a good restaurant to go to for lunch also.
Looking for girly things

mumokuteki goods & wears
First, I want to introduce this shop, mumokuteki goods & wears! This shop is the mumokuteki café I just told you about.

The concept of this shop is “Good for the body, good for the environment.” They sell all kinds of things from natural candy and seasonings to Kyoto’s traditional crafts and cute clothes and bags; they even sell plants!
cafe
The café is on the second floor, and although it is very popular and you often have to wait, you can browse the shop downstairs while you wait.
2Kanzashiya Wargo
Kanzashiya Wargo
Buying a kanzashi, a traditional Japanese hair ornament, as a souvenir is something very cool also. The kanzashi specialty shop Kanzashiya Wargo on Shinkyogoku Shopping Street is the biggest one in Japan, selling around 20,000 hair ornaments in a month.
kanzashi
Many girls go to Wargo to get their cute kanzashi. This is a souvenir bound to make all girls happy.
How about this shopping course with many charming shops? The Teramachi and Shinkyogoku shopping streets are always changing, and there are always new shops, so no matter when you go, there is always something new to enjoy.
