Nishijin Textile Center Kimono Show

For more than half of century the Nishijin district of Kyoto produces a type of high class woven brocade, named just like that, Nishijin. A history of this art, the fabrication process, and a collection of representative textiles can be admired at the Nishijin Textile Center, which also features a very attractive store.

Also, several times a day, here takes place a beautiful parade of kimono, made of course from materials produced in Nishijin.
