Looking for fun things to do in Kyoto with kids or a relaxing indoor activity on a rainy day? Visit AriHana Kyoto, an indoor playground and cultural experience center located near Kiyomizu-dera and Sanjusangendo Temple.

One of our most popular toys is our hiragana wooden blocks – a traditional Japanese toy that’s loved by children and adults alike. Each block features a hiragana character on one side and a cute illustration on the other. Children enjoy learning Japanese letters while asking, “What’s this?” and engaging in fun conversations. These blocks are great for building towers, playing dominoes, and sparking creativity through hands-on play.
