The shrines and temples of Kyoto offer a rare link between modern life in the city and its very ancient past. The Shimogamo Shrine dates to the 6th century and seems suspended in time, its serenity and spiritual power still palpable. Visit Fushimi Inari Shrine, then see the life-sized Thousand Armed Kannon statues of Sanjūsangen-dō. Enjoy traditional geisha performances, then savor a tranquil meal at a restaurant overlooking the Kamo River.

We recommend our "Electric power assist bicycles"Because... 1:It's as easy as riding a conventional bicycles,but easier! 2:You won't run out of breath when cruising uphill. 3:It's quiet and environmentally friendly compared with motorbike. 4:It's FUN!! 5:All "Electric power assist bicycles" are JAPAN products(YAMAHA and Panasonic). 6:There are many sights to see in Kyoto. However,there are many uphill slopes,too.*"Electric power assist bicycle" :While the bicycle is being pedaled,electric power assist is working.

Be the bicycle artists and the our bicycles are your canvas. Let’s paint your memories of Kyoto trip with THE GOOD DAY VELO!
I cannot recommend this enough. We absolutely loved our bike trip from start to finish. It was such a great way to see so many sights in just one afternoon (especially as we had our 4-year-old with us) - we wouldn’t have been able to see nearly as much on foot, public transport or car. Naoki was very accommodating and knowledgeable. We loved weaving through the amazing little streets we otherwise would never have discovered, in addition to covering the major attractions. And the pre-ride coffee and post-ride beers were wonderful too. We will definitely book another tour with Naoki when we next come to Kyoto.

Ume Sakura is a kimono rental salon located in Central Kyoto, Japan. We have been offering a wide selection of traditional kimonos to visitors and locals for over a decade. Established in 2009 in the Kitano/Nishijin garment district by an obijime desinger, we have specialized in high quality, authentic, and stylish everyday kimonos for women and men. In 2019, we have moved our salon to the Gosho-Minami area, near Kyoto Imperial Palace (Kyoto Gosho) and the Teramachi shopping district. Our salon is in a historical Machiya (traditional wooden townhouse) with tatami rooms and a courtyard garden, where we offer a quality, personal, and special experience.
My husband and I had the pleasure of renting traditional kimonos from Ume Sakura in November 2019. We had originally booked with another location but saw that Ume Sakura seemed to have more traditional looking kimonos. We made reservations online. We arrived at the salon in the morning and were quickly greeted warmly by the owner, Yagi. The salon itself is in a traditional wooden townhouse and the garden is beautiful. They had tons of beautiful kimonos to choose from and you can tell that the fabric is of the highest quality. I had a hard time choosing so asked Yagi for a recommendation for a kimono that would look nice against the backdrop of the Autumn leaves.. I could not be happier with his choice (see the beautiful photos attached)! They did my hair, let me choose a purse and gave me some slippers and off I went to explore Kyoto and take amazing photos in my kimono! I received so many compliments on my kimono and did not see anyone else with a similar one! The experience was amazing and authentic from start to finish! If you want to wear a beautiful, traditional kimono, receive great Japanese hospitality and have a unique experience in Kyoto, renting from Ume Sakura is a must! Thank you Yagi and Eku for your warm smiles and hospitality! I will be returning in the future!
