Kyōtofuritsu kamogawakōen Kamogawa Delta

One of my favorite area in Kyoto.
Either I walk from Gion to Shimogamo or the other way around, is both fun and scenic.
Famous place is Kyoto are always crowded during spring for Cherry blossom or autumn for fall colors but the Kamo River area has always space for everybody. No fighting your way among the crowd and you can enjoy taking pictures here.
Even in summer, this area is refreshing and cooler.
People of different sizes gather to have picnics, practice their dance moves, jogging, cycling and other activities but the most fun of all is jumping around the big stones while crossing the river.
Every now and then you compete with small children :)
Demachiyanagi Station, Shimagamo Jinja and Demachiyanagi Shotengai are just a few minutes away.

I see so many children or people crossing the Kamogawa river by jumping through the large stones that are located in the river. It a nice place to enjoy drinks during the night here, but during day time… be careful with the Kite. If you want to eat something here, it’s better to enjoy food from noon till night.
During spring there are so many university students having drinks in night. During summer night I go out with my friend here with drinks. There are several more people there too. The autumn is one of the nice time to be here as it is not hot at all and not cold as winter.
But I sometime see people who are being attacked by the Kite as they try to eat food there. The Kite here are clearer and there are a lot of them (I saw more the 10 of them were flying around). I guess after it gets dark it’ll be ok to bring something to eat.
This park is a nice place to enjoy the joint of the Kamogawa 鴨川 (Kamo river). the right side of the river is called Takano-​gawa (Takano-​river) and the river one the left will be Kamo-​gawa 加茂川 (Kamo river, in a different Chinese letter with the Kamogawa below this park).

Kamogawa delta is a sort of park located in Kyoto, that close to Demachiyanagi station. During summer you can see many children there who are playing with water at the river. There is the amazing view from here, so you might want to take some pictures! In spring, there are so many people who drop in here for cherry blossom viewing.
I was there for enjoying cherry blossom viewing when I just entered university. I was exactly a new student. Usually at university, we are holding a welcome party under the trees of cherry blossom for new students for invitations to participate in club activities. Without expectation I joined the party and enjoying talking with other new students who were not have the same major or senior, and the view of cherry blossom sometimes LOL
