About
Located at Randen Arashiyama Station, the Kimono Forest is a stunning art installation featuring around 600 acrylic pillars wrapped in vibrant, traditional Kyo-yuzen dyed silk. It is highly worth visiting to see how contemporary design beautifully showcases Kyoto's textile heritage. Visitors can expect a magical atmosphere, especially at evening when the pillars light up to create a glowing path.
Insider Tip
Visit at dusk when the LED lights turn on, and walk to the 'Ryu no Atago' pond to make a wish and dip your hands in the water.
