- SHOGUN STUDIO JAPAN Kyoto Arashiyama Samurai Armor Experience - At this studio, participants will don samurai armor, then embark on a photo tour in a van! The first stop is Togetsukyo Bridge, one of Arashiyama’s most renowned sightseeing spots. Here, participants will capture breathtaking samurai photos with the stunning mountains and river as a backdrop. The next destination is the iconic Bamboo Forest. A visit to Arashiyama is incomplete without experiencing this must-see location, where the samurai photo shoot continues in full armor. The tour concludes at a traditional tea house with over 400 years of history. Situated at the mountain’s base, this classic Japanese-style house offers the perfect setting to relax and rejuvenate. The tour includes matcha green tea and sweets. On days when the tea house is closed, and for the 08:30–10:30 session, the tea house will not be available. In such cases, the plan will feature photos at Togetsukyo Bridge and the Bamboo Forest, followed by studio photography back at the studio. SHOGUN STUDIO JAPAN is the only place in Kyoto where participants can wear samurai armor and be photographed at these iconic locations! Don’t miss the opportunity to create unforgettable memories.
