Rent a kimono at VASARA Kyoto Station Store, right in front of Kyoto Station, and stroll around Kyoto. Staff help you from choosing a kimono to getting dressed, and women can also get a simple hairstyle for free. A Peace of Mind Package covering kimono damage or stains is included, and kimono rental customers can leave one bag for free. The store is about a 3-minute walk from the JR Kyoto Station Central Exit, so you can drop off your luggage and head straight to Kyoto sights such as Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Fushimi Inari Shrine in a kimono.
Visit the store on your booked date and time slot (12:00–12:30 or 14:00–14:30), show your QR code and choose a kimono. Women's kimonos come in 4 grades: Standard, One Star, Retro Modern and Retro Premium, and you can upgrade to a higher grade on site. Men can choose from a variety of designs available at the store on the day.
Experienced staff dress you step by step, from the undergarment to the obi (sash). Dressing takes about 20 minutes per person, and women can get a simple hairstyle for free. Accessories such as hairpins, lace decorations and maiko parasols, or special hair styling, can be added for a fee.
Once you're ready, enjoy sightseeing freely in your kimono. From the store, Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Ninenzaka/Sannenzaka are about 26–27 minutes by bus, Minamiza Theatre in Gion about 20 minutes by bus, and Fushimi Inari Shrine about 12 minutes by train from Kyoto Station. You can leave one bag at the store for free, and return the kimono to the store by 17:30 on the same day.
※ The experience may be cancelled due to unavoidable circumstances. In that case, you will be contacted via the contact details provided at booking by 20:00 the day before.
