When it comes to a couple’s trip to Kyoto, many of you might think about it, right?
Wearing something different from your usual attire and seeing a new side of your partner is a unique experience, especially with kimono 💓

When choosing kimono as a couple, pay attention to “balance”
This time, we chose antique kimono,
and among them, we selected petite antique kimono.
We added an orange color to bring out the feeling of autumn, and incorporated blue and green as the main colors so that it won’t be overshadowed even when surrounded by autumn leaves.
We unified the obi, bag, tulle, and other elements in white tones.
By adding tulle, even a kimono with a strong adult feel can be worn in a girly style, and it results in a very cute look from behind, so it’s highly recommended!
For your partner’s kimono, we chose beige and brown as the main colors.
By selecting a patterned haori, it results in a well-coordinated outfit without being too plain,
and you both have a nice finish that doesn’t interfere with each other’s coordination when standing side by side.◎

Kimono Sightseeing Route from Rikawafuku Shimizu-dera Store
For your reference, I will introduce the sightseeing spots in the Higashiyama area that we visited on this day.
We first explored the area around Keage Station.
First, we headed to the inclined plane just outside the station, and took a photo in the middle of the long railway tracks.
There were people in kimono taking photos at every spot we visited.
Next, it took us about a 5-minute walk from the inclined plane to reach Nanzen-ji Temple, a famous spot for autumn leaves.
Although the leaves hadn’t changed colors on this day, they should be in full red by the time you visit.
Is it a magnificent view, or is it a magnificent view?
As you proceed further, you’ll come across the famous photo spot, Mizuroukaku.
Even in rainy weather, it’s easy to take pictures here, so you can definitely get great shots even if the weather is uncertain.
Highly recommended!
After taking many photos, take a break at blue bottle coffee, which is just a 3-minute walk away.
Why not take a break and contemplate your next destination in a stylish space with delicious coffee?
Now that it’s gradually becoming possible to explore outside,
why not rent a kimono and experience Kyoto while feeling the city’s charm?
All the stores are conveniently located near tourist attractions. Make a reservation as soon as you decide!
