BESTWe even went to Arashiyama with the couple option and got a lot of pretty pictures. We arrived at 9 o'clock sharp, so it was our first time, so the store was relaxed and all the staff were friendly! It was a 6 o'clock return, so it was a good experience. If you look around the area, everything is more expensive than this price, so it's better to make a reservation. The accessories are a little worn, but you can't see them at all in the picture, so think of it as a convenient stay. Friendliness + location (change clothes and take a walk nearby toward Cheongsusa Temple) (I can go) It's perfect. Oh, and I can go to the bathroom wearing a kimono~ Getting dressed is also a breeze, so it doesn't take that long haha. It took about an hour for me to do my hair + get dressed, but I have to pick out my clothes quickly so I can do my hair. Think about what you're going to wear before you go~~
The most popular in Kyoto,
Kimono rental shop Wakana
Introducing Wakana, a shop where you can find authentic Japanese-style kimonos rather than a factory-type kimono rental shop. Wakana is a popular place because it has many special kimonos that cannot be found in other shops, hand-selected by the owner, who is a Miss Kimono winner.
After choosing a traditional Japanese costume of your choice at Wakana, take a stroll through the streets of Kyoto and make memories. If you purchase the professional photography option together, you can take beautiful photos.

Meet the real kimono
Are you planning to visit Kyoto? If so, why not book a Wakana kimono rental experience to enjoy Kyoto even more? Choose the design of your choice and stroll around the streets of Kyoto to create wonderful memories.
At Wakana, you don't have to know how to wear a kimono, as our experienced staff on site will help you put it on. Enjoy our meticulous, high-quality service and experience the exquisite quality of a genuine Japanese kimono.
If you purchase a 60-minute dedicated photo shoot package, you can even take pictorial-like photos. The costumes you can rent also change depending on the season. In the summer, you can choose a cute yukata or a beautiful and elegant summer kimono. We also have high-quality kimonos used for Japanese formal wear.
Why I recommend Wakana Kimono
The reason I recommend Wakana Kimono is because of the quality of the kimono. At Wakana, you can wear a kimono that was personally selected by the owner, who is the winner of the Kyoto Miss Kimono Award, so there are many designs that you can't find at other stores. Of course, the staff is friendly, so you will feel good while renting a kimono.
