The clothes are stained with the charm of the Tang Dynasty, and the wooden clogs tap the Kyoto town - wear the colors of Kyoto on your body

The morning light filled the Japanese houses in Gion, and my mother and I were in a kimono shop, carefully selecting from thousands of fabrics. I chose a bright yellow-green furisode that symbolizes spring, while my mother chose an elegant kimono that is more suitable for her age. [Kimono] The moment the belt is tightened, my breathing and steps are integrated into the rhythm of Kyoto - the wooden clogs gently tap on the bluestone road of Sannenzaka, the sleeves brush against the Philosopher's Path with flying cherry blossoms, and the goldfish pattern on the hem swims in the sparkling waves of Kamo River. [FourLeafClover] When I arrived at Kiyomizu Temple, the spring cherry blossoms were flying like snow, and it suddenly dawned on me that these layers of fabrics were actually the pass to the ancient capital: the colorful Nishijin weaving embodies a thousand-year-old craftsmanship, and the elegance of the taiko knots echoes the lines of the eaves of Japanese houses. [Sakura] In the afternoon, I walked on the stone path, under the shadows of cherry blossoms. The gravel road hurt my toes, but it created a stunning contrast between the colorful kimonos and the ancient buildings in the photos. [Heart] When returning the clothes, the marks of the tunic remaining around the waist seemed to imprint the colors of spring on the skin - it turns out that the spring colors of Kyoto are most vivid when worn on the body. [Love]

Kiyomizu-dera Temple

Kiyomizu-dera Temple (きよみずでら) is one of the most representative temples in Kyoto, Japan, and is also part of the World Cultural Heritage "Cultural Properties of Ancient Kyoto". It not only has spectacular architecture and natural scenery, but also combines history, faith and culture, making it well worth a visit. Transportation: Take a bus from Kyoto Station to Gojozaka or Kiyomizu-michi, then walk for about 10 to 15 minutes (there are busy shopping streets along the way). Tips: There are fewer people in the morning, so it is more comfortable to take pictures. The snow scenery is also beautiful in winter, but be careful of the slippery roads. Kiyomizu-dera Temple has undergone renovations in recent years (partially completed), making the building more beautiful. In addition to temples, food is definitely the highlight of your trip to Kyoto! Here are some recommended restaurants near Kiyomizu Temple or in the Higashiyama area, so you can have something delicious to reward yourself after your hike: ⸻ 1. Yatsu Bridge (やつはし) • Type: Traditional Kyoto confectionery • Recommended reason: There are many Yatsubashi specialty stores on Shimizuzaka and Sannenzaka where you can try the food. There are two versions: raw Yatsubashi (like mochi) and baked. • Flavors: Classic cinnamon, matcha, strawberry, seasonal flavors ⸻ 2. Akoya Tea House (あこやちゃや) • Type: Japanese all-you-can-eat snack • Features: Serving all-you-can-eat traditional Kyoto home-cooked meals and white rice (plus pickles and soup) in an antique setting. • Recommended for: People who have been walking all day and want to sit down and have a good meal ⸻ 4. % ARABICA Kyoto Higashiyama Store • Type: Cafe • Reason for recommendation: A pilgrimage site for internet celebrities, with excellent coffee quality. Special latte art + Kyoto old street scenery, looks good no matter how you take pictures. • Location: Near Yasaka Pagoda, a good place to take a break during a walk ⸻ 6. Nishiki Market (a little further away, but totally worth it) • A little far from Kiyomizu-dera Temple, but you can take a bus there • It is the "kitchen" of Kyoto, with many snacks: fried skewers, soy milk donuts, octopus balls, matcha crepes...
