A bunch of Koreans in the know told us about this place to enjoy the night view of the city of Kyoto with Yasaka Pagoda as your backdrop. We were told we must go due to its beauty.

But we are more intrigued by the the fact that this place is overseen by legendary bartender Mr. Minoru Nishida, who graduated with honours in psychology, and then dedicated himself to the path of bartending. He has been awarded various prestigious titles by the Ordre des Coteaux de Champagne, a Comité Champagne recognised organization, frequently works as a judge for various whisky contests, and makes guests appearances at world-renowned restaurants and events.

K36 is a rooftop bar located on the fourth floor of the Hotel Seiryu Kiyomizu in Kyoto. Only on the 4th floor, but Kyoto is a low city, the old capital, a bit like Washington DC to your New York.
