    Kyoto Kyoto-shi Higashiyama-ku Kiyomizu 3-334 Seiryu En Uchi
    "This shop located on the grounds of Seiryu-en Garden sells Yojiya oil blotting sheets, a classic Kyoto souvenir. The name comes from when the shop put its efforts into the sale of toothbrushes in the early Taisho period. Toothbrushes were called ""yoji"" in Japan at the time, so people started to refer to the shop as ""Yojiya,"" meaning ""seller of yoji."" This eventually became the shop's official name. First released in the 1920s, their popular oil blotting sheets are still beloved by many people even after more than 100 years. The sheets, which quickly became popular with the women of Kyoto's geisha districts and people in the theater and film industry, are the shop's flagship product."

Kyoto Areas

around-area-map

Its wooden tea houses, shuffling geisha, and spiritual sights have seen Kyoto hailed as the heart of traditional Japan, a world apart from ultramodern Tokyo. Despite being the Japanese capital for over a century, Kyoto escaped destruction during World War II, leaving behind a fascinating history which can be felt at every turn, from the fully gold-plated Kinkakuji Temple down to traditional customs such as geisha performances and tea ceremonies, which are still practiced to this day.
