A local would say...

The most beautiful private lane in Kyoto — blink and you'll miss the entrance.

A narrow, atmospheric pedestrian-only lane found along Nene-no-Michi after descending Sannen-zaka and Ninen-zaka. One of Kyoto's most beautiful private lanes, lined with traditional machiya and small inns. The entrance is easy to miss, adding to its hidden-gem quality.
