Day
4
It’s the fourth day of the trip, and it’s also the day that Cha Cha looks forward to the most.
Today we will come to the ancient capital Kyoto
You will also wear traditional kimono to experience the purest and most authentic Japanese charm.
I believe you in front of the screen are as impatient as me
Let’s go together!
Say nothing. Let’s take a photo of holding hands to calm down the shock (〃’▽’〃)
Our residence is very far from Kyoto Kiyomizu Temple . It takes about two and a half hours' drive. Chacha recommends that you come to Kyoto first, live directly in Kyoto, and fully experience the charm of Kyoto, and then go to Osaka play
The kimonos were also booked directly at Ma Yun’s father’s house (details later). Generally speaking, there will be Chinese staff stationed in the store, but unfortunately, the Chinese lady returned to China the day we went there, but luckily overall Communication was not too complicated and we successfully completed the entire dressing process.
We made an appointment to wear clothes at a branch near Kyoto Station at 10:30 in the morning (the time recommended by the staff). The plan always changes (due to staying in bed ಠ╭╮ಠ), and the store is located in a shopping mall. On the 6th floor, it took us a while to find it. It was already 12:30 noon when we arrived. We missed the appointment time. The beautiful kimono styles were naturally sold out. So everyone should be early. Go in the past
The first step into the store, the clerk will give you two large shopping bags, one for you to choose the kimono you want, and the other for your clothes. Remember to take your valuables with you. If you have any small jewelry Be sure to keep things like this well. Chacha just lost a bracelet he just bought here, and here is the heartbreak BGM (ಥ﹏ಥ)
Wearing a kimono is indeed as rumored, with three layers on the inside and three layers on the outside (I feel like I am just wearing a hoof), which is very cumbersome. Wearing everything from the inner layer to the outer layer, belt, belt, headdress, handbag, clogs, etc. You need to choose your own combination
In terms of hairstyle, the little fairy must definitely get a bangs cut. If you don’t have bangs, please buy a fake bangs, promise me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The package we purchased Only a basic hairstyle (the one that doesn’t look good) is given as a gift. When you comb your hair, you will have the option of adding money to get other beautiful hairstyles. Rich people, please feel free to add money to become beautiful.
The whole wearing process is an assembly line operation, which takes more than two hours in total. The moment I finished wearing it, I could almost fall asleep standing up (T_T)

From the place where you wear kimonos to Kiyomizu Temple and you need to take a bus. The journey takes about 10 minutes. Kiyomizu Temple is a temple on the mountain. After getting off the bus, follow the flow of people. After climbing all the way up, struggling for a long time, and trekking long distances wearing wooden clogs, we arrived at the entrance of Kiyomizudera Temple at 4:30 pm, and we had no energy to enter the temple to worship. . .
Walking in clogs, whoever walks knows it, that feeling is really painful and wonderful.
So let’s enjoy the beautiful scenery on the road (little sister)
Of course, we should also appreciate our beautiful self
Hooking up with a foreign guy to help take sunset photos
The umbrella was a gift given to me by my grandma when I was a child. I have treasured it for more than ten years. I brought it here specially to take pictures. Carrying it is like bringing my grandma with me❤

Best sunset viewing spot
Super beautiful dusk
There was a My Neighbor Totoro theme store on the road, but I didn’t go in because I was too tired. I feel really guilty for being a die-hard Hayao Miyazaki fan.
Tips Time
1. Location selection: Compared to wearing a kimono in a temple, Cha Cha personally recommends wearing it in Nara, because temples basically have more stairs to walk, like Kiyomizu Temple, and you have to go up the mountain, which will be very tiring. Nara is very big. Part of it is grassland, and there is also a temple. It is much less popular than temples like Kiyomizudera Temple. There is no need to crowd around, and you can also take photos with deers.
2. Kimono: If you plan to experience wearing a kimono, you can bring your own leggings and leggings. This will be more hygienic.
Attached is the detailed information of kimono rental. The cost is for 2 people for one day.
In the fifth year since my grandma left, I brought the gift you gave me when I was in elementary school to a place where you have never been. I hope you can feel this freshness too.
Looking back carefully, you were my idol when I was 6 years old
I will try my best to become sparkling so that you can see me even in the distant heaven
You can either travel or read, but either your body or soul must be on the way.
-Both body and soul must always be on the road "Roman Holiday"
