A Walk Along Ikoma Monzenjo Street, Where Time Flows Slowly

#JulyTravelSupport #MonzenjoStreet 📍MonzenjoStreet The road to Hozanji, **Ikoma Monzenjo Street (門前町通り)** is a short but deep-felt alley. Small tea houses, old souvenir shops, and temple supplies shops with a faint scent of incense line the alley, and the Japanese atmosphere where time seems to have stopped flows along the stone path that is good for walking slowly. There aren't many tourists, but thanks to that, I was able to see the sight of the elderly people in the neighborhood taking a leisurely stroll. There were traditional rice cakes and matcha ice cream sold at a small snack shop in the middle of the road, so it was a good place to take a short break, and the red lanterns and temple bells became more and more distinct as I got closer to the end of the alley, which was really nice. I recommend it to those who want to feel the 'old streets' of Japan quietly without the crowds. #TheBest #IkomaTravel
