The clothes are stained with the charm of the Tang Dynasty, and the wooden clogs tap the Kyoto town - wear the colors of Kyoto on your body

The morning light filled the Japanese houses in Gion, and my mother and I were in a kimono shop, carefully selecting from thousands of fabrics. I chose a bright yellow-green furisode that symbolizes spring, while my mother chose an elegant kimono that is more suitable for her age. [Kimono] The moment the belt is tightened, my breathing and steps are integrated into the rhythm of Kyoto - the wooden clogs gently tap on the bluestone road of Sannenzaka, the sleeves brush against the Philosopher's Path with flying cherry blossoms, and the goldfish pattern on the hem swims in the sparkling waves of Kamo River. [FourLeafClover] When I arrived at Kiyomizu Temple, the spring cherry blossoms were flying like snow, and it suddenly dawned on me that these layers of fabrics were actually the pass to the ancient capital: the colorful Nishijin weaving embodies a thousand-year-old craftsmanship, and the elegance of the taiko knots echoes the lines of the eaves of Japanese houses. [Sakura] In the afternoon, I walked on the stone path, under the shadows of cherry blossoms. The gravel road hurt my toes, but it created a stunning contrast between the colorful kimonos and the ancient buildings in the photos. [Heart] When returning the clothes, the marks of the tunic remaining around the waist seemed to imprint the colors of spring on the skin - it turns out that the spring colors of Kyoto are most vivid when worn on the body. [Love]
