Overview

Kyoto is full of kimono rentals, but here you can dress as a ninja instead. The costume is one size fits most and goes on over your own clothes. The shop is a 10-minute walk from JR Inari Station, just 5 minutes by train from Kyoto Station, and a 5-minute walk from Ryukokudaimae-Fukakusa Station on the Keihan Line. Fushimi Inari Taisha is within walking distance, and the Fushimi sake district and Uji are easy to reach by train. Everything is paid online in advance, so you don’t need cash at the shop.
