Lovely Kyoto, staying in a traditional Ryokan.


This time in Kyoto we are staying in a "ryokan". Which is a type of traditional Japanese Inn originated in the Edo period (1603-1868). They featured tatami-matted rooms, communal baths and other shared areas.

Our living/ sleeping area:

 Shared garden





And in the evening they move the table…and the tatami appears!


Wearing our YUKATA, which is a casual summer kimono :)
