My Trip

Change into a kimono, learn a formal tea ceremony on tatami, then walk Sannenzaka and the Yasaka Pagoda lanes in the same outfit. A trinity of traditional experience — wearing, drinking, and walking — that feels natural only in Kyoto.

Yasaka Pagoda (Hokan-ji)八坂の塔(法観寺)
Higashiyama · Landmark · Photo spot · 20 min stay
A 49m five-story pagoda towering at the end of the lane. The composition of the pagoda caught above the slope is the very scene that comes to mind at the word 'Kyoto' — the period to the experience.
