Kyoto, Japan’s most historic and traditional city, is also deeply rooted in the ancient culture of incense.
Located just a short distance from Kyoto Station, the shop quietly stands on Hanayacho Street, tucked behind Higashi Hongan-ji Temple.
This area, once a bustling hub for flower merchants and a thriving temple town near Nishi Hongan-ji, still retains the timeless charm and tranquility of Kyoto.

Even if I am interested in incense, it can seem intimidating,but this place is very easy to enter and the interior is very comfortable.
I gave my parents incense from this store and they loved it.
