Only one day to enjoy!!😆😆😆

Please join us on a walking tour to explore the sumo provincial tour in Kyoto and whisky tasting at Suntory Yamazaki.🥃🥃
There is no Grand Sumo Tournament here in Kyoto, but almost every year we have a provincial tour.
Jungyo (provincial tours) are held for the purpose of promoting the way of sumo, revitalizing local communities, and fostering youth.👩🧒🧑👦👩‍🦱
Provincial tours are where many Rikishi (sumo wrestlers) come and you get to see their practices by ranking, sumo matches and ring-entering ceremony.
Although this is not a “tournament”, but you’ll get to see different sides of the Rikishi.
If you have never watched sumo before, you might fall in love!😍😍😍
They are very friendly and approachable.

Tour begins at Hankyu Nishimuko station, 20-minute walk to the Muko Civic Gymnasium.🚃🚃🚃
During the 3-hour provincial tour, you can enjoy bento style Japanese lunch and tea.🍱🍵🥢🍱🍵🥢
And 3 souvenirs and pamphlet to take home with you!

After the sumo, take a small train ride to Suntory Yamazaki Museum for whisky tasting.🥃🥃
Yamazaki Museum is very hard to reserve the spot.
But, with us, it is guarantee!👍👍👍
Inside the museum, you can enjoy 3 glasses of one of the most though out whiskies, including Yamazaki 25, Hibiki 30, and Hakushu 25 and much more!🥃🥃
※Tour price doesn’t include the tasting fee. It will be an additional fee.👛👛👛
There is gift shop where you can buy exclusive items, and enjoy modules and panels and exhibits of beautiful and rare bottles.

For those you that are not interested in whisky tasting, we’ll take you to Asahi Oyamazaki Villa Museum of Art for paintings of Water Lillies by Monet and art pieces from other local artists.🖼️👨‍🎨🖼️👩‍🎨🖼️

This is a 6 hour tour allowing you to enjoy the fullest!🚶‍♂️👟🧢🚶‍♀️‍➡️👒🚶

We want to introduce a new tour!🎉🎉🎉
This is a walking tour allow you experience both sightseeing and performing art all in one!😍😍😍

The tour will start with strolling around the Kinkakuji Temple for magnificent view.
During the renovation in 1986-1987, it took 200,000 gold leaves which weighed 20 kg (44 pounds) to replace the 2nd and 3rd floor. 😲😲😲
The tour will spend approximately 45 minutes enjoying the temple and beautiful grounds.

The tour will take you to "Kotobuki-kai" at the Kamishichikenkaburenjo for traditional Geisha and Maiko performances.👘👘👘

History of "Kotobuki-kai"
Shinchi Nijo opened a teahouse in east of the Nijo River under the name of Kamishichiken in 1734. Unfortunately, it was abolished in 1887.
At that time, teahouses displayed the characters "寿" (Kotobuki), "栄" (Sakae), "東" (Higashi), and "泉" (Izumi) on their noren (shop curtains) during the day and on their lanterns at night as a mark to indicate they were officially licensed teahouses.
After the war, the Onshukai (a traditional performing arts event) was quickly revived. In order to make it a study group for a new era, the name "Onshukai" was chosen by taking the character "寿" from "Kotobuki Nakama" (the Kotobuki group), thus restarting the Onshukai.

All the transportation will be by walking or using public transportation.🚌🚶‍♂️🚌🚶‍♂️🚌🚶‍♀️
Please wear comfortable shoes and come prepared for any weather.👟🧦👒🧣
