Get to know the traditions of Japanese classical dress with a chance to try on an iconic kimono for the day. This rental gives you the ability to experience the unique world of fashion that developed here over the centuries, right in the heart of one of the country's most historic cities.

With more than 120 years' worth of history and a tremendous variety of colours and designs on offer, your hosts can help you find the perfect kimono. You can get fitted with a complete ensemble including an obi belt and Japanese sandals, leave your belongings in a safe storage space if you like, and then set out to enjoy the sights of Kyoto.

The venue's location in the midst of the city centre leaves you plenty of opportunity to explore its historic beauty. You're just a quick walk to the subway stop at Shijo Station and the venerable Nishiki Market, and you can visit some of the most famous places in the old imperial capital before you return the kimono at the end of the day.
