Yesterday, Kyoto experienced heavy rain, making sightseeing a bit challenging for many visitors.
Even on such a rainy day, we had the pleasure of welcoming a 5-year-old girl visiting Kyoto from Tokyo with her mother and grandmother. While the traditional Japanese toys we offer are nostalgic for her grandmother, they felt new and exciting for both the child and her mother—“We’ve heard of them, but never actually played before!”
She eagerly tried a variety of classic Japanese games, including origami, paper sumo, and Bozu Mekuri. She enjoyed them so much that she kept asking her mother, “Can we come again tomorrow?”
Her grandmother also shared how happy she was to take a relaxing break from sightseeing and spend quality time together. It was truly a meaningful and memorable experience for all three generations.
AriHana Kyoto is an indoor play space where families can enjoy traditional Japanese games and cultural experiences together. It’s the perfect place to create unforgettable memories during your Kyoto trip.
