The Misato Kinen Kan
Hostel
👍👍 My stay here was great. The host is very kind, and went out of his way to help me in a number of ways. The place itself is a bit off the beaten track, but close to the nearest station, making it great for touring the area but still having a quiet place to return to later. Overall a highly recommende...

Nishijin Asagi Museum
Handicraft museum
👍 I visited on February 24th, 2022. We were able to take photos freely inside the building. The Nishijin textiles were particularly beautiful and photogenic as they glowed in the dark. The atmosphere is different when it's dark and when it's bright. I haven't had a chance to wear a kimono, and I was...

Takeda Sennosuke Marionette Museum
Handicraft museum
👍👍 元善光寺を訪ねる際にふらりと立ち寄りました。 全くノーマークな施設であり、内容も未知でした。 操り人形を展示してあるんだろう、、、程度。 ところが、その説明や実演を間近に見るにつけ、この技術の継承ができない事の歯がゆさに複雑な心境に陥りました 立派な施設とその内容、もっと宣伝しても良いのでは？

Kyoto Seishu Netsuke Art Museum
Handicraft museum
👍👍 Beautiful art and magnificent samurai house it’s set in. It’s very peaceful and quiet inside , shoes off so kids need to be on a leash…. A must if you appreciate fine detailed art, woodwork or carving, go slowly and it’s well worth the trip and cost.

Kiyomizu Sannenzaka Museum
Handicraft museum
👍👍 The Kiyomizu Sannenzaka Museum is an art museum that permanently exhibits cloisonné, metalwork, maki-e, and Kyoto Satsuma. It's very small, but I thought it was a museum that Kyoto should have, as there was a thorough explanation of the art exhibits, the production process, and the materials used.I...

Namikawa Cloisonne Museum of Kyoto
Handicraft museum
😐 A memorial hall that used the home and workshop of Yasuyuki Namikawa (1845-1927), a master of cloisonné ware who was active from the Meiji period to the early Showa period. Please note that it is closed in summer and winter. By the way, when I checked in May 2022, it was closed due to earthquake-pro...

Adachi Kumihimo Gallery
Handicraft museum
👍 Kumihimo is less difficult and easy to attach. I'm glad I was able to take my work home right away. However, when I went there a few years ago, I felt like I could even choose the color combination of the strings, but now it seems like I can choose from dozens of patterns that have already been comb...
