I’m Risu, a blogger who likes to enjoy Kyoto without spending a lot of money!
This time, I went to Alley Aquarium, which is rumored to be quietly nestled in the back alleys of Pontocho in Kyoto!
It was a wonderful space with a hidden gem feel!
The surrounding area had a very Kyoto feel to it, so it was a great spot.
Recommended points

The emotional atmosphere makes it perfect for a date!
You can see the fish for free!
TOC
What is Alley Aquarium?
Pontocho Street is just a short walk from Kyoto Kawaramachi Station. About 200m on foot from the entrance is a small, tucked away aquarium!
Although it’s called an aquarium, it’s actually a space where the owner of the shop next door displays the fish he keeps.
Although it’s not a large scale, you can enjoy small fish such as goldfish and killifish for free, and it’s a spot with a wonderful atmosphere!
A stylish little space tucked away in an alley!
