His plan said no age limit, but the little girl is to compensate although a thousand yen is reasonable, but the terms can be clearer, but the clothes are very cute.

The photographer's service was thoughtful. Although the scenic spot was crowded, beautiful photos were still taken. The clothing matching and makeup and hair of the young lady in the store were also great!

There are many styles of clothes in the store, which can be matched at will. If you have the budget, you can also pay extra to upgrade, the quality will be different! It looks great for taking photos, highly recommended!

There are many styles of kimonos, which may cause selection difficulties~ The counter can communicate in Chinese. A Japanese auntie assisted in hairdo and kimono wearing, but there was also a Chinese introduction posted next to it, so everything went smoothly. The auntie was very gentle and did a beautiful hairstyle. She was reluctant to take it off when she got home at night. The kimono was also worn neatly, I liked it very much. The only small drawback may be that it is far from Kiyomizu Temple and requires a longer walk, but you can take pictures at Yasaka Shrine first, and then walk slowly, which is also a good experience!
