Micaela ミカエラ | Renting A Kimono in Tokyo | 着物を借りて浅草を観光巡り @Ciaela | Uploaded December 2017 | Updated October 2024, 5 days ago.
Kim Dao and I rented kimono and hung out around Asakusa, in Tokyo Japan. With the massive Senso-ji shrine, Tokyo Skytree, and the iconic Kaminari-mon in the area, this is a really easy way to jump in and submerge yourself in the Japanese world. Is it a bit touristy? Yeah, of course, but for those making a short trip to Tokyo, this is an unforgettable experience that will look amazing in photographs. Make sure you bring a camera (or a charged smartphone) because you're definitely going to want to pose and take photos everywhere.
The rickshaw ride is a fun experience, even for the Japanese, and the rickshaw drivers (runners) in this area are fit, energetic, fun, and love to teach people Japanese trivia.
The Kimono Shop we visited is english friendly, close to all the Asakusa Stations, and can take reservations online. OH! And they DO have kimono for men as well, so this is an activity you can enjoy as a couple, or even as a couple single dudes as well.

![[30 Second Japan] 24 hours from Tokyo to Japan’s most remote island community! 24時間にかけて小笠原諸島に行く！](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Yl-8QbBHSvI/hqdefault.jpg "[30 Second Japan] 24 hours from Tokyo to Japan’s most remote island community! 24時間にかけて小笠原諸島に行く！
Would you make the long trek to a remote island such as this? 🫣🏝️⛴️
Welcome aboard the Ogasawara Maru ⛴️♥️
This ferry is the only mode of transportation between mainland Japan, and some of its most remote islands! It only runs once every six days, taking an entire day both ways - making the shortest possible stay on these islands four whole days!
Also known as the Bonin Islands, this small collection of islands lies 1000km south east of Japan and is actually considered to be part of Tokyo’s greater metropolitan area! Although the islands are incredibly remote and not easily connected to the mainland, approximately 2,500 people choose to live out their best lives here.
Evie and I, along with Loretta (@kemushijp) and her little boss, and the team at @makes_japan set out to visit this small tight-knit island community and learn about their perspective and way of life! I can’t wait to share the things we experienced during our short four day stay!
Happy to answer any questions about the ferry in the comments below! ✨✋")
