Trying on a kimono that day was truly a unique experience.
First, there was the furisode, so wide and large that the sleeves almost brushed the ground. The material was fine silk, embroidered with delicate cherry blossom patterns, smooth to the touch. The master dresser who helped me dress was extremely skilled, wrapping layer upon layer, starting with the juban, then the nagajuban, and finally the gorgeous outer robe.
The sash was tied so tightly that it almost took my breath away. I suppose this is why Japanese women are always soft-spoken and act so gently—being bound so tightly, no one could stride or speak loudly. A small pillow-like object was inserted into the waist; the master dresser said it was an "obiage" used to secure the wide obi belt. The obi knot was tied in the back, very intricate, and I was told there are various styles, but mine was just the most common.
This attire has a certain dignity, as if you're not just wearing a garment, but putting on a whole set of behavioral norms.
Looking in the mirror, the person reflected suddenly seemed much more reserved. My back straightened involuntarily, my head lowered slightly, and even my smile became more subtle. The beauty of the kimono probably lies not in how it adorns the body, but in how it restrains the heart, teaching people to quiet down from the outside in.
Wearing this garment felt like draping an entire culture over my body.

I booked a tour package for the first time, and it was more fulfilling than I expected. The explanations were great, and I had so many amazing experiences in just one day! I highly recommend this for those who want to create a diverse plan and itinerary within a short timeframe. Songran Lee, our tour guide for today, is fluent in Korean and provided excellent historical context and explanations, which allowed me to gain a lot of knowledge. Thank you! 👍👍 The best~!

Since there aren't many Korean reviews, I'm writing one myself. I hope it's helpful.
*First of all, I recommend purchasing the all-inclusive package. This saves you the hassle of exchanging cash on the bus.
At Amanohashidate View Land, I recommend focusing on the scenery you can see when going up and down, as well as the view of the town from above, and then quickly heading back down.
On the way in and out, you'll pass by Chion-ji Temple, which is famous for wisdom. There are many small fans hanging on the trees, so you can think of it as a place to pray for success in exams.
In addition, there's Amanohashidate Shrine, which is said to help people find love, a story related to a dragon, and the reason why people look between their legs from the top is simply because the town looks like a dragon that way, and it feels good(?), and so on.
*Be sure to keep in mind that the place where everyone takes pictures is being broadcast live from the cruise ship boarding area!
When you move to take the cruise ship, you can buy shrimp crackers for seagulls at the kiosk before boarding for 100 yen. There aren't as many seagulls as you might think. The shrimp cracker taste is the same as in Korea.
Ine no Funaya / Funaya in the city of Ine means waterfront houses. So the name of the town is 'Ine'.
As a small town, it has a very neat feel.
The 30 minutes of free time in Ine was a real shame, as it was such a quiet, serene town that felt like it was straight out of a Ghibli film.
Walking along the path between the buildings, the sound of the water and the atmosphere of the town that you can only feel in the waterfront houses was really nice.
*The guide will take pictures for you here.(👍👍)
I was traveling alone, but I received a lot of consideration from the angelic guide, Yuki, and the other Koreans who were on this tour with me. Thanks to them, I had a fun and relaxing day. 😊😊
*What was better than other tour products was that the meeting time wasn't too early, and the best part was that you could choose to get on and off in Osaka or Kyoto. I think it's a good choice for those who need a healing break from their busy and hectic Osaka and Kyoto itineraries. ☺️

The itinerary was well-organized 👍🏾 and not strenuous, just a bit tiring from the bus rides. Our guide, Yuki, provided very clear explanations about boarding and disembarking, and the waiting locations. She would always send the parking location to me via WhatsApp, which was very convenient 👍🏾. That's why I always enjoy booking with Klook 👍🏾.
