Čo robiť v Rurikō-in Temple

It is incredible. Not only do they explain what sumo is, but they make you feel and experience it. The staff is very attentive and fluent in multiple languages, and the wrestlers are very nice and fun. I had a great time and had the opportunity to observe and try to move a professional sumo wrestler.

Dnes som zažil absolútne úžasný zážitok. Dozvedel som sa toho toľko o histórii matchy, čo bolo nečakané. Hostitelia boli priateľskí a hovorili výborne po anglicky. Určite ich navštívim znova pri mojej ďalšej ceste do Kjóta.

Zážitok bol zábavný pre celú rodinu. Hobľovanie dreva nebolo príliš ťažké, dokonca ani pre môjho 8-ročného syna. Vybrali sme si Sugi, orech, Sakuru a Purple Heart. Victor K. bol veľmi nápomocný, profesionálny a trpezlivý. Poskytol jasné pokyny a užitočné tipy na výrobu krásnych paličiek. Je vidieť, že ho remeslo výroby paličiek skutočne baví. Personalizované gravírovanie bolo zábavným doplnkom, ktorý sme si všetci zamilovali.

Naša sprievodkyňa, pani Shion, bola úžasná! Je veľmi nadšená a pútavá. Prechádzka pokrýva pomerne veľa vecí v dobrom tempe, ale nevideli sme žiadne maiko ani gejše, čo bol môj hlavný cieľ. Zaujímalo by ma, či by sa trasa nedala otočiť, aby bola väčšia šanca spozorovať talentované umelkyne v štvrti Kráľovnej gejší?

Krásny a autentický zážitok. Naučili sme sa správny spôsob prípravy matče a získali sme lepšie pochopenie významu a tradícií, ktoré sa skrývajú za čajovým obradom. Nosenie tradičného japonského kimona urobilo tento zážitok ešte výnimočnejším a nezabudnuteľnejším. Vrelo odporúčame!

One of the BEST experiences of our Japan trip! From arrival, everyone was kind, patient and welcoming. We were three generations: my mom, me and my 4-year-old daughter, and they found matching kimonos for ALL of us! My mom and I are plus-size, and we had beautiful options without needing the ¥5,000 celebratory upgrade. They even had my daughter’s size and gave her a sweet little add-on. We also booked the 60-minute photography session directly through the kimono shop, and DO IT! 📸 Our photographer was amazing. He posed and directed us, chose beautiful locations, and captured individual, mother-daughter and three-generation photos. It was HOT, we needed restroom breaks, and we had a 4-year-old, but he was incredibly patient and never made us feel rushed. Just LOOK at these photos! We left with more than vacation pictures; we have family keepsakes we’ll treasure forever. 👘💕

Aye was an absolutely amazing tour guide at Nijo Castle! He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many fascinating details about the castle, its history, and features that we never would have noticed on our own. I had previously visited Nijo Castle without a guide, and I can honestly say that this experience was 100% better. I learned so much and walked away with a completely new appreciation for the castle and its history. On top of being an excellent guide, Aye was incredibly thoughtful and attentive. When it started to rain during our tour, he even offered to get umbrellas for us! It was such a kind gesture and really showed how much he cares about the people on his tours. I cannot recommend Aye enough. If you’re visiting Nijo Castle in Kyoto, having him as your guide makes the experience so much more meaningful and memorable. Thank you, Aye, for such a wonderful tour!

Veľmi zábavný a poučný zážitok, personál je priateľský a ústretový. Hostiteľ je charizmatický a zážitok z sledovania živej sumo šou je na nezaplatenie!! Odporúčam!! Mimochodom, v cene sú zahrnuté aj nápoje, takže si môžete šou užiť a nemusíte sa o ne starať sami.

The Kimono is definitely high quality. I enjoyed the experience and extremely beautiful when worn. They help you with the belt of the kimono then style your hair to your preference.
