Kyoto City boasts an immovable popularity in the ranking of Japanese tourist attractions.The summer feature of Kyoto is your ship's Kawadoko. This is a video introducing Kifune Shrine which is one of the shops where you can enjoy the riverbed of your ship.Kyoto cuisine lunch and sukiyaki are popular.From the video 0:44, attractive dishes such as fish sashimi, tempura and dessert will appear one after another, so don't miss them! What is "Kawayuka" in Kyoto? Photo：Kawadoko cuisine in Kibune, Kyoto There are four areas in Kyoto in the summer that host Kawadoko: Kamogawa River (鴨川), Takao (高雄), Takagamine (鷹峯), and Kibune (木船). Kawadoko are a place to sit near the water and cool off, and are made with Japanese style tatami flooring called "Zashiki." They are also called "Noryo Yuka" in Japanese as well. The reason why Kyoto Takafune's Kawaboko is so popular Your ship is called "Kyo no Okuzashiki" along with the nearby Mt. Kurama (鞍馬山) .The riverbed is built on the Takifune River, which flows right next to Takifune Shrine, which is famous for its power spot. Even in midsummer, your ship is about 10 degrees Celsius lower than the temperature in Kyoto City, and it is also characterized by a comfortable time. It is said that during the Taisho period, people who put floor desks in the river and washed their feet were entertained with tea and food. While listening to the murmur of the river and the sound of the waterfall, you can enjoy Kyoto cuisine mainly with carp and sweetfish. Kawayuka at Kibune, when does it start in 2024? What are the lunch hours? Kawayuka at Kibune is available from May to September. Period: Wednesday, May 1, 2024 - Monday, September 30, 2024 At Kibune Tea House, there seems to be no cancellation fee in case of bad weather, but please note that some restaurants charge a cancellation fee. Advance reservations are recommended if you are coming from far away. Kibune Tea House is open for lunch from 10:30 to 15:00. Kawayuka cuisine is a kaiseki meal, so allow about one hour for each dish to be served. If you are planning to go sightseeing in the vicinity before or after lunch, please take time into consideration. Characteristics and recommendations of "Kifune Tea House" In order to relax and enjoy the riverbed, I would prefer to avoid congestion if possible.I recommend the Takifune tea house that I am introducing to you this time. The biggest attraction of the Kawadoko at Kibune-jaya is that they don't accept large groups or tour groups. The price is reasonable as well, so it won't put a strain on your wallet either. In addition, either side of the platoform faces the river, so you can soak your feet in it. By sampling Kibune-jaya's exquisite kaiseki cuisine while feeling the clear streams of Kyoto, shown at 0:30 in the video, both your mind and body will be at peace. Access to Kifune Shrine is also quite simple. It's only a 2-minute walk from Kibune-jaya. This is another great thing about Kibune-jaya. A pick-up service is available from the nearby Kibuneguchi Station as well, so it's convenient to let them know when you make a reservation. Fireflies in Late June Photo：Fireflies The Kawadoko at Kibune-jaya is open from May to September, but we highly recommend visiting from late June to mid-July. It's also the time when the fragrant Ninose lilies bloom, and fireflies can be seen flying around the Kibune River at night. If you're lucky, they may even appear on the Kawadoko at Kibune-jaya. Kibune is also home to a number of Ryokan (Japanese-style inns), notably "Beniya." It's a good idea to stay overnight after cooling off on the Kawadoko and go sightseeing in a different area the following day. It's also the time of year when Kurama Temple is surrounded by fresh greenery and the hydrangeas are in full bloom at Sanzen-in Temple. You're guaranteed to have a great trip, as Kyoto City is home to numerous places of interest, such as Shimogamo Shrine, Heian Shrine, Nanzen-ji Temple, Ginkaku-ji Temple (the Silver Pavilion), and Kyoto City Zoo. Summary of Kawayuka at Kibune Photo：View of the Kifune River If you want to cool off in the extreme heat of Kyoto, a kawadoko lunch at Kibune is a great way to do so. Enjoy grilled sweetfish and other dishes while listening to the murmuring of the Kibune River. After visiting Kibune Shrine in the morning, have a relaxing lunch on the kawayuka, and then go to Kurama Mountain. Kurama, etc. Please plan your sightseeing schedule for the day in advance. Kibune Tea House, which was completely destroyed by a typhoon in 2019, reopened in January 2021. In summer, courses range from 7,700 yen to 16,500 yen. From fall to spring, yudofu dishes and botan-nabe hot pot are also available, so you can enjoy your meal while viewing the autumn leaves and snowy landscape. 【Yelp】Kibune-jaya https://www.yelp.com/biz/%E8%B2%B4%E8%88%B9%E8%8C%B6%E5%B1%8B-%E4%BA%AC%E9%83%BD%E5%B8%82?osq=%E8%B2%B4%E8%88%B9%E8%8C%B6%E5%B1%8B

An Eye-Catching Introduction to Japan This approximately 4-minute video, focusing on modern-day Japan as seen by foreign tourists and travelers, boasts a level of quality that has attracted major interest not only in Japan but in various countries throughout the world. This video's footage goes above and beyond other Japan PR videos and keeps viewers glued to the screen. By the video's end, you'll most likely feel an indescribable surge of emotions, such as those experienced after viewing a magnificent movie of epic proportions! Highlights of the Japanese Introduction Video, "in Japan" This video, "In Japan," taken in 2015 by German filmmaker/creator Vincent Urban, is a nearly 4-minute collection of footage of his 3-week journey in Japan to locations including Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto and Hiroshima. In taking a look at images of landscapes and scenery natural and commonplace to Japanese people which are projected from a foreigner’s perspective, even we as Japanese natives can perceive such images as unknown, brand new discoveries and never-before-seen sights and scenes, and this video therefore allows us to learn about the appeal and charm of Japan in a brand new light. Viewers of this video can also agree that its high quality BGM and camera work is yet another reason for its high acclaim both in and out of Japan. This video condenses a wide variety of discoveries in Japan ranging from regularly seen daily scenery and landscapes to famous tourist spots. Examples of such sights include Asakusa Temple in the Shitamachi area of Tokyo, festivals, Kendo (Japanese martial art with bamboo swords), Buddhist temples, Fushimi Inari-taisha shrine as well as convenience stores, Tokyo Tower, street performances, Tokyo Skytree, sumo wrestlers, clubs and idols, in addition to shinkansen (bullet trains), natural landscapes, the Atomic Bomb Domes in Hiroshima & Nagasaki, Mt. Fuji and metropolitan night scenes. Japan as Seen Through Cultural Changes Photo：Sumo Learning about shifts in modern Japanese culture gives us deeper insights into the allure and attraction of Japan as a nation in the present day. Japan of yore once had superb classic culture primarily consisting of artistic traditional crafts, and as you can see in the video, festivals and martial arts passed down to Japan from ancient times have been regarded as symbolizing the very culture of "Nihon no Wa," or "The Spirit of Japan." It is also well-known that Japan is the birthplace of kendo and sumo wrestling which are now sports famous all the world over. In addition, present-day Japan is going through transitions in which its forms of entertainment, such as manga (Japanese comics/cartoons) and anime (Japanese animation), formerly considered to be types of sub-culture, have been disseminated throughout the globe to be cherished by multitudes of people as pop culture. This signifies shifts in the image of "Japan" in the eyes of foreigners abroad from that of a land of ninja and samurai to an anime & manga nation. The Akihabara area, now the "Mecca" of anime and manga which serves as the center of Japanese contemporary culture, has become a well-known tourist location which draws huge numbers of sightseers visiting Japan, and it's also popular as a town for shopping. Japan as Seen Through Tourist Meccas & Architectural Buildings Photo：Sensoji Temple and women If you're watching this video you probably know that Japan, due to its also being famous as a country abound with history and nature, sees immense numbers of foreigners who visit for sightseeing on a daily basis. Locations in Japan shown in the video, such as Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa, Tokyo and the Atomic Bomb Dome in Hiroshima, are highly recommended tourist spots in Japan which are renowned even on a global scale. The existence of temples and shrines in Japan, whose number is too great to mention here, attracts hosts of foreign sightseers day by day, and this is proof of how Japan enjoys deep-rooted popularity as a tourist destination amongst abroad residents all over the world. Japan as Seen Through Nature ©Izu City Modifying The richness and abundance of nature, amongst other aspects, is definitely a thing to behold here in Japan. Japan's largest mountain, Mt. Fuji, and its bamboo forest, also featured in the video, are without a doubt natural tourist spots that represent the glory of Japan. The view from Mt. Fuji's summit, in particular, is easily summed up by the words "magnificent scenery," and once you experience climbing this mountain on your own, you'll be able to appreciate the thrill and excitement of this spectacle all the more. Such natural splendor is just one more example of a globally sought-after sightseeing attraction highly recommended in Japan, a fact testified to by the unceasing droves of tourists from abroad who visit day-to-day without end.

A Look at the Yuzen Dyeing Introduced in the Video Source :YouTube screenshot So how is Yuzen dyeing done? Let's take a look at the main steps in the dyeing process. 1. Zuanzukuri (図案作り): Drawing a design 2. Aobana Utsushi (青花写し): Copying the design onto the fabric 3. Itomenori-oki (糸目糊置き): The process of putting anti-dye paste around the patterns to be dyed. 4. Ji-ire (地入れ): Stretching the fabric to prevent unevenness in color that may occur later. 5. Yuzen-sashi (友禅挿し): After the fabric is stretched, the patterns are filled in with a brush. 6. Noribuse / Roubuse (糊伏せ / ロウ伏せ): The dyed patterns are covered with rice glue or wax to prevent the background color from seeping into them. 7. Hikizome (引き染め): Hikizome is the process of dyeing the background color of the fabric with a brush. 8. Mushi (蒸し): Mushi is a process of fixing the dye to the fabric using steam power. 9. Mizumoto (水元): Mizumoto is the process of rinsing off excess dyes and glues left on the fabric from the previous processes with water. 10. Yunoshi (湯のし): Yunoshi is a finishing process, in which steam is applied to the shrunken or distorted fabric in order to remove wrinkles and align its length and width. 11. Some-agari (染め上がり): After the mushi, mizumoto, and yunoshi steps are completed and the glue and wax are removed, the lines of the threads appear clearly and the dyed patterns emerge vividly. 12. Shiage / Kinkako / Shishu (仕上げ / 金加工 / 刺繍): The process of decorating the dyed fabric with gold leaf and embroidery to make it gorgeous. 13. Shitate / Karieba (仕立て / 仮絵羽): Karieba is the process of sewing a single, fully processed piece of cloth into the shape of a kimono. The kimono made through these processes are incredibly beautiful.

What is “Kayabuki-no-Sato” in Miyama-cho, Nantan City, Kyoto Prefecture? Sightseeing Video Introduction Kayabuki Village, introduced in the video, is a tourist destination located in Miyama Town, Nantan City (南丹市, Nantanshi) in Kyoto Prefecture (京都府, Kyotofu). Kayabuki Village, located near the center of Kyoto Prefecture, is a hidden gem where you can enjoy sightseeing at ‘the alternative Kyoto,’ different from ‘Kyoto, the ancient capital.’ Its charm lays in the relaxing landscape of its thatched-roof houses against the backdrop of majestic mountains reminiscent of a Japan long passed. Of the 50 houses comprising Kayabuki Village, 39 have their roofs thatched using a traditional Japanese method, where logs are combined to form a triangle and thatches are layered on top of them. Even in Japan, it's rare to see this many thatched-roof houses at once. In 1993, the historical landscape, including the thatched roof houses, was registered under the Preservation Districts for Groups of Traditional Buildings. The inside structure of a thatched-roof house and its storehouse is displayed at the Miyama Folklore Museum (美山民俗資料館, Miyama Minzoku Shiryokan) in Kayabuki Village. You can feel the old way of living in the agricultural areas of Kyoto through the displays of nearly 200 ancient agricultural tools and household items. The video shows many of the charms of the village, so be sure to watch it as you read through this article Beautiful Spring Greenery and Attractions in Kayabuki Village Photo：Kayabuki Village post Kayabuki Village is popular for its brilliant landscapes lit up by snow lanterns in the winter and colorful autumn leaves in the fall, but the beauty of the spring greenery is truly something to marvel at. We recommend hiking along the rice paddies reflecting the shining green Tanba Mountains (丹波山地, Tanba Sanchi) and the thatched-roof houses. The Jizos seeing over the village and the rustic plants and flowers greet travelers with warmth. The Miyama Kataribe Walk, where the local Kataribe (a tour guide) shows you around, is another place popular for sightseeing. The scenery of the nostalgic red post at the entrance to the village, shown in the video, is a great place for taking pictures. Be sure to upload them to your instagram! We recommend getting a shot of Kayabuki Village over the rice fields. In May, Kayabuki Village is crowded with tourists visiting for the Rice Planting Festival (お田植祭, Otaue Matsuri) and the 'Simultaneous Hosing' (一斉放水, Isseihosui). The ‘Rice Planting Festival’ is a sacred event held on the second Sunday in May where the saotome pray for fertility. The festival in which the saotome, wearing sedge hats and kimono, and lined up in a row, plant rice crops by hand, attracts many tourists, both foreign and Japanese. On the other hand, the ‘Simultaneous Hosing’ is not an event per se, but a twice-a-year testing of water cannons which protect the thatched-roof houses from fires. The water from 62 water cannons draw a large arch in the sky that resembles a water curtain over the thatched-roof houses. This view is famous as one of the best in Kyoto tourism for its beauty and attracts a large crowd of people. Definitely get a picture of this if you can! Kayabuki Village Summary Photo：Kayabuki Village Kayabuki Village, a popular out-of-the-way tourist destination in Kyoto, is located about 80 minutes away from the Kyoto City Center by car, and free shared parking lots are provided.

Video introduction of the Setsubun event “Oniyarai ritual” at Ishimizu Hachimangu Shrine in Yawata City, Kyoto Prefecture "Kyoto Festival: Spring Ogre Purification (Oni Yarai Shinji) [4K]" uploaded by "Discover Kyoto," introduces the "Oni Banishing Ritual" which is held every year at Iwashimizu Hachimangu in Kyoto. Iwashimizu Hachimangu, located in southwest Kyoto (Yawata, Kyoto), a popular sightseeing spot in Japan, is a historical shrine with many highlights. There are ten buildings there, including the grounds of the shrine and the main shrine which have been designated National Treasures, and many National Cultural Properties. It is also one of three great Hachimangu Shrines in Japan. You are able to feel Japan, by just walking around the shrine. This article introduces the Oni Banishing Ritual "Oni Yarai Shinji," a type of Setsubun held every year on the Sunday before February 3rd at Iwashimizu Hachimangu, as well as sightseeing and general Setsubun information. As you can see from 2:24 in the video, beans are thrown at oni while people shout "Oni yaro." After the oni are driven out of the shrine they run away. Finally, fukumame (good luck beans) are thrown into the crowd signifying that the shrine has been cleansed. The video will make you want to perform some oni exorcisms of your own! What's the Event Like? Source :YouTube screenshot The origins of Setsubun derive from "Tsuinashiki," an event to drive off evil spirits on New Year's Eve and at the change of seasons to drive away evil spirits. The common chant you'll hear among onlookers is "Oni wa soto, fuku wa uchi!," (Demons out, fortune in!) while throwing the beans. It's also good luck to eat as many beans as your age. In some areas, it's also common to hang a sardine with its head skewered on a holly branch on your doorstep as a charm and to eat ehomaki while facing the "lucky direction" without speaking. The "Oni Banishing Ritual" is held every year on Sunday before February 3rd at Iwashimizu Hachiman in Kyoto, from 1pm and 2pm. A priest who exorcises evil enters and shoots in all directions with a bow made of peach branches. Next, he uses a sword made of peach branches to strike in all directions, saying "oni yaro!" This can be seen from 0:58 in the video. From there, the standard Japanese red and blue oni with clubs come and shout to scare children. The priest and others stand in front of the main building as the oni try to rush forward, but the beans are thrown at them and they're sent tumbling down the slope over and over again. Eventually, the oni give up and run away. Afterwards, beans in small packages are given to the visitors. You can see the event taking place starting from 1:30 in the video. Sightseeing Information Photo：A priestess holding a Kagura bell To get to the shrine, take the Keihan Line from Kyoto Station, ride about 30 minutes and get off at Iwashimizu Hachimangu Station.
