Saori

Saori, a very popular Waguri specialty store in Kyoto. Since I got a numbered ticket early in the morning, I had a good memory of being able to eat while lining up from 30 minutes to 1 hour before and watching the special seats on the 1st floor. I think it's worth lining up because you can feel the atmosphere inside the store and the relaxing Kyoto-like time. We also take out.

More than 10,000 colorful hydrangeas are in full bloom along the sidewalk in the Kyoto City Nanbu Clean Center.
