Hidden away in a residential area on the side of Yoshida Hill, a red door marks the entrance to Shirakaba. This tiny bar used to have twenty-four hour police surveillance on it, due to the fact that it was a hangout for the student activists of nearby Kyoto University. The person who runs the bar used to be married to the student leader Takase, whose memory is kept alive at the yearly cherry blossom party.
