Our second day Tokyo adventure was Kimono Day, a day dedicated to immersing ourselves in Japanese culture and exploring the city’s most famous landmarks. We had pre-booked our half-day kimono experience through Klook, and we couldn’t wait to start on this enchanting journey.

Wearing a kimono is a true art form, and we quickly realized that as we donned our beautiful ensembles. The obi (the sash that ties the kimono together) required intricate folding and tying techniques. Thankfully, the staff at the rental shop were incredibly patient and accommodating, guiding us through the process with grace and precision. Along with the kimono, we were provided with a pair of geta (traditional wooden sandals) and a kinchaku (a drawstring purse). To complete the look, they graciously fixed our hair and adorned it with beautiful and colorful kanzashi (exquisite hair ornaments). You could even avail of their makeup services for an additional fee. And we’re all set feeling Kawaii on our Kimono get-up.
