What is Kawadoko/Yuka?

It is a pier seat that protrudes from the eaves of a riverside restaurant to the river side and is one of Kyoto's summer traditions.
There are "Kamogawa Noryo Yuka", "Kifune no Kawadoko", "Takao no Kawadoko", and "Shozan KeiRyo Yuka",
They have a different atmosphere and you can enjoy their special cuisine.
The area along the Kamogawa River is called the Nouryo Yuka, and the area in Kibune is called the Kawadoko.
Since Kibune has seats right above the river, there is a massive difference in coolness.
