The location is very convenient. It's only a 5-minute walk after getting off the bus. It's also very close to Kiyomizudera Temple. You can take photos along the way. It's a good experience. There are many styles in the store. I suggest you think about the general color you want to wear before going. It's easy to choose. We can help you put on the kimono. The staff are very professional, they are on three floors inside and three outside. I give you a good review. I hope you can maintain this kind of service.

Many options service is also very good, but the price on upgrade will be more expensive. A little more hairstyle options would be better

The overall feeling is very good, but when I choose a kimono, I can't see the overall effect and I feel very confused about the choice. It would be better if it can be worn on the upper body. I struggled for half an hour before choosing the clothes. This step is really not suitable for me. After changing, the overall feeling is still the same. Very good. I especially like the belt. The bow is very cute. After wearing it, I went to Kiyomizu Temple for a walk. Many people took pictures wearing kimonos. Our photographer Xiao W is still very professional. The various views are beautiful and worth the price.

To start with, both our hosts, Steven and Charles Are the sweetest and very helpful! They were very professional in creating a group in advance sharing maps, Best places to visit food to taste, etc for each location. even after the trip, they shared the best places to plan future trips in Japan. this is something I have never seen any other who is doing to make the stay so comfortable by sharing things. A big THANK YOU to both of you! the places were good, and I could enjoy the colours of fall. the time given at each location was very generous. I would definitely want to return to these places once again in future! Thank you for a wonderful day! 😇
