“The beauty of a kimono lies in its details.”

— Masako Chiyoda, a master of traditional Japanese kimono

When you visit Arashiyama in a kimono, you will feel as if you are in a beautiful, eternal landscape. The idea of combining the wonderful Japanese atmosphere with the natural beauty of Arashiyama is truly a picture.

When you wear a kimono to Arashiyama, first enjoy the scenery of Togetsubashi Bridge. The light-colored kimono blends with the beauty of the bridge and the river. The view of Togetsu Bridge and the Cherry Blossom Tunnel seen from above is a great scene, just like a scene from a movie.

Next, head to the path through the bamboo forest. Walking through the bamboo forest in a kimono, you will be surrounded by silence and beauty. You can spend time relaxing and feeling the sound of bamboo swaying in the wind and the sound of light twinkling.

Additionally, please visit some of Arashiyama’s famous tourist attractions, Tenryuji Temple and Maruyama Park. As you walk around the historical buildings and gardens in a kimono, you will feel more harmonious with the surroundings and sense the breath of history.

There are also many tea houses and Japanese candy shops around Arashiyama, so please be sure to stop for a break. You can enjoy a luxurious time tasting Japanese candies while drinking matcha.

Experiencing Arashiyama in a kimono will give you a deeper understanding of traditional Japanese culture and scenery.
