Nagamachi Yuzenkan

The Nagamachi Yuzen-kan, or Yuzen silk, is a kind of school-shop-museum dedicated to the kimono. It is located on the second floor of a modern building, which would be somewhat difficult to find if the entire neighbourhood wasn't full of signs pointing the way. Admission is 350 yen, and it's worth it if you're a fan of kimonos. Inside you can see a short documentary about painting kimonos, a shop, and a small showroom. You can also enjoy the opportunity to practise a bit, and for 4,000 yen you can dye your own silk.
