There are also buildings unique to the shrine, such as the main hall and dance hall, so it is recommended to take photos in front of them.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, there are the following location shooting spots.<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #999; margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>West Tower Gate<\/b><br \/>\n<b>Main shrine<\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>\u30fbWest Tower Gate<\/b><br \/>\nWhen you head towards Yasaka Shrine from Kyoto Kawaramachi Station, the first thing that catches your eye is the West Tower Gate. It is a beautiful vermilion-painted gate, and many students on school trips and tourists take pictures in front of it. Yasaka Shrine is one of Kyoto&#8217;s most representative shrines, so by taking photos here you will be able to capture the atmosphere of Kyoto in your photos. However, since it is a popular spot, we recommend visiting on weekdays or early in the morning if possible. <\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>\u30fbMain shrine<\/b><br \/>\nThe main shrine, which is painted vermilion like the West Tower Gate, is also a popular location for photo shoots. The main shrine, which has been designated as a national treasure, is built in a unique architectural style called Gion-zukuri. If you are planning to visit Yasaka Shrine, you should definitely visit the main shrine at least once. You can capture scenery that looks great in location photos, such as scenes of people praying. Yasaka Shrine is also famous for changing its colors with the four seasons. Beautiful scenery greets you every season, such as cherry blossoms and blue maple leaves in spring, and autumn leaves in autumn. If you want to take location photos in Kyoto, we recommend that you include Yasaka Shrine as one of your options!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #999; margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>Yasaka Shrine<\/b><br \/>\n\u25a0Address: 625 North Gion-cho, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto-shi, Kyoto 605-0073<br \/>\n\u25a0Kyoto Gion Yasaka Shrine<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yasaka-jinja.or.jp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.yasaka-jinja.or.jp<\/a><\/div >\n<h3><span id=\"Maruyama_Park_5_minutes_walk_from_the_store\">Maruyama Park, 5 minutes walk from the store<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The second park we will introduce is Maruyama Park, which is a vast park with a pond strolling garden* located behind Yasaka Shrine.<br \/>\n(*Pond stroll garden: A garden designed around a large pond.It is designed so that you can enjoy the garden from various angles by walking around the garden.)<\/p>\n<p>Here at Maruyama Park, the Gion Weeping Cherry Blossoms are planted in the center of the park, and it is also known as one of the best cherry blossom viewing spots in Kyoto. There are also many maples and maples planted here, so you can enjoy the red leaves in autumn.<\/p>\n<p>Maruyama Park is a popular tourist spot that shows different natural beauty depending on the season, but since it is a large park, it is difficult to get crowded with people, making it relatively easy to take location photos.<\/p>\n<p>After taking a location photo at Yasaka Shrine, we recommend taking a location photo at Maruyama Park as well!<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #999; margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>Maruyama Park<\/b><br \/>\n\u25a0Address: Maruyama-cho, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto 605-0071<br \/>\n\u25a0Maruyama Park Kyoto City Urban Greening Association<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/kyoto-maruyama-park.jp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/kyoto-maruyama-park.jp<\/a><\/div>\n<h3><span id=\"Yasaka_Koshindo_5_minutes_walk_from_the_store\">Yasaka Koshindo, 5 minutes walk from the store<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yasaka Koshindo is a tourist attraction in Kyoto that is also famous as an Instagrammable spot.<\/p>\n<p>When you visit Yasaka Koshindo, the first thing that catches your eye are the colorful talismans called Kukurizaru. This amulet contains the wish to &#8220;suppress one desire in order to make one wish come true.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>By taking pictures on location with this colorful Kukuri Monkey in the background, you can take pictures with cute colors and a somewhat unusual feeling!<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #999; margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>Yasaka Koshindo<\/b><br \/>\n\u25a0Address: 390 Kanazono-cho, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto-shi, Kyoto 605-0828<br \/>\n\u25a0Yasaka Koshindo<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yasakakousinndou.sakura.ne.jp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.yasakakousinndou.sakura.ne.jp<\/a><\/div >\n<h3><span id=\"Kodaiji_4_minutes_walk_from_the_store\">Kodaiji, 4 minutes walk from the store<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The fourth place we recommend is Kodaiji. Kodaiji Temple, which is within walking distance from Yasaka Shrine, has many spots that are great for photos, such as the main gate, tea room, garden, hall, and the wooden walkway leading to it.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, the front garden of the Hojo and the Horai-style garden are famous as gardens that each have a Kyoto flavor.<\/p>\n<p>The front garden of the Hojo is a garden filled with white sand, and a weeping cherry tree has been planted there as if watching over the garden. In spring, these weeping cherry blossoms are in full bloom, creating a fantastic contrast between the white sand and pale pink cherry blossoms.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the Horai style garden is a famous garden of Kodaiji Temple. This is a garden made with a pond and historic wooden buildings (tea room, hall, etc.) that fits the word &#8220;garden&#8221;. If you like the historic atmosphere of Kyoto and the townscape of townhouses, you may want to take location photos here. You will be able to take photos that will make you feel as if you have traveled back in time to the days of the aristocrats.<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #999; margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>Kodaiji Temple<\/b><br \/>\n\u25a0Address: 526 Shimokawaramachi, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto-shi, Kyoto 605-0825<br \/>\n\u25a0Mt.

Even if you have never been to Kyoto, there are probably many people who have seen the &#8220;Shimizu no Butai.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the Kiyomizu stage, Kiyomizu-dera Temple actually has many location shooting spots, such as the three-storied pagoda and the Niomon gate.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>\u30fbShimizu Stage<\/b><br \/>\nThe stage in Kiyomizu, where the Kanji of the Year is announced every year, is a well-known tourist attraction in Kyoto. The vast stage that juts out from the cliff is a spectacular sight to behold, and its majesty will captivate your eyes. <\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>\u30fbNiomon<\/b><br \/>\nWhen you visit Kiyomizu-dera Temple, the first thing you will pass through is Niomon. A pair of Kongorikishi statues stand on either side of the large vermillion-painted Niomon Gate. <\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>\u30fbThree-storied pagoda<\/b><br \/>\nThirty-one pagodas with a height of 31 meters can be seen from far away, making them one of the symbols of Kiyomizu-dera Temple. The three-storied pagoda is also painted in bright vermilion, with dragons and Buddhist paintings painted on the ceiling and pillars. <\/div>\n<p>As you can see, Kiyomizu-dera Temple has many photo spots, and as it is a major tourist attraction, it is crowded with many people on Saturdays, Sundays, and during the day. When shooting on location here, it will be relatively smooth if you consider the day of the week and time of day.<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #999; margin: 20px 0px;\"><b>Kiyomizudera<\/b><br \/>\n\u25a0Address: 1-294 Shimizu, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto-shi, Kyoto 605-0862<br \/>\n\u25a0Otowayama Kiyomizudera Temple<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kiyomizudera.or.jp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.kiyomizudera.or.jp<\/a><\/div>\n<h2><span id=\"Waplus_Kyoto_location_photo_plan_list\">Waplus Kyoto location photo plan list<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1326\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wapluskyoto.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pixta_89998031_M.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000 \" height=\"1334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/waplus-kimono.com\/kyoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pixta_89998031_M.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/waplus-kimono.com\/kyoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pixta_89998031_M-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/waplus-kimono.com\/kyoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pixta_89998031_M-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/waplus-kimono.com\/kyoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pixta_89998031_M-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/waplus-kimono.com\/kyoto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pixta_89998031_M-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At Waplus Kyoto, we actually take location photos at the spots introduced above!<\/p>\n<p>Here, we will introduce the types, contents, and prices of Waplus Kyoto&#8217;s location photo shoot (Kimono location photo plan).<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #999; margin: 20px 0px;\">\u30fbLocation shooting 60 minutes, 16,000 yen<br \/>\n\u30fbLocation shooting 90 minutes, 22,000 yen<br \/>\n\u30fbLocation shooting 120 minutes, 28,000 yen<\/div>\n<p>*If you also want to rent a kimono, an additional 2,980 yen will be required.<br \/>\n*For all plans, it is possible to provide a total coordination including kimono, obi, accessories, sandals, lace tabi, bags, and hair arrangement.
