We recommend renting a kimono early in the morning or early on weekdays to avoid the crowds. Recommended for those who want to enjoy sightseeing spots in a relaxed manner.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Avoid_popular_seasons_when_choosing_a_rental_store\">Avoid popular seasons when choosing a rental store<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Depending on the kimono rental store, the reservation status during busy periods and peak times may vary. Do some research in advance to find less popular dates and times. If you ask the staff when making a reservation, you may be able to find out the timing of a hidden spot.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Consider_surrounding_areas_and_avoid_crowds\">Consider surrounding areas and avoid crowds<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Even if the Gion area is crowded, strolling around the area is also appealing. Beautiful scenery and historic buildings can be found even in places a little far from Gion. Please enjoy a relaxing time while visiting not only popular tourist spots but also hidden spots.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Devising_means_of_transportation_in_kimono\">Devising means of transportation in kimono<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To avoid crowds, it is best to not only walk, but also use transportation such as bicycles, rickshaws, and taxis. The Gion area in particular has many narrow streets and many pedestrians, so make sure to use your means of transportation wisely to avoid crowds.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Check_the_crowd_trends_for_each_spot_before_renting_a_kimono\">Check the crowd trends for each spot before renting a kimono<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before renting a kimono, research the crowd trends at each tourist spot in advance.
