Daily life of Waplus Nara

Hello!
Welcome to Waplus Nara – Nara Park Bus Terminal Store 🌙
👘❄️👘❄️👘
Winter is one of the best seasons to enjoy kimono rental in Nara.
Whether you are visiting for New Year celebrations, shrine visits,
or sightseeing around Nara Park, wearing a kimono will make your trip even more special ✨
Many visitors ask us:
“What kimono patterns or colors are suitable for winter?”
In this blog, we introduce recommended winter kimono patterns and colors,
perfect for sightseeing in Nara ❣❣

Recommended Winter Kimono Patterns
In traditional kimono culture, seasonal patterns are based on the lunar calendar.
Because of this, some early spring flowers such as plum blossoms or narcissus are also considered suitable for winter kimono styling ❄️
By understanding the concept of “anticipating the season”,
you can enjoy a stylish kimono look while respecting seasonal beauty 🎵
