Sancho Town

An old chaya district stretching from Obamakatori to Obamaasuka. This narrow alley is lined with townhouses and high-end restaurants, with red and brown latticed wood exteriors that give the area a charming old-fashioned atmosphere. Obama City has long had strong ties to Kyoto, and even today, elements of Kyoto's culture live on in Obama City's modern lifestyle.
