• Rakuu-tei Kouichi Store (Kimono Rental & Souvenir Shop) - The Kouichi Store is a renowned kimono shop with a rich history spanning over 170 years.

Begin your journey at the historic tea room Rakuu-tei, nestled within the tranquil Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden. Upon arrival, the staff will assist you in choosing a kimono from a selection of seasonal designs.

Seasonal Note: From June 1 to September 30, yukata (a lightweight summer kimono) is offered instead of the regular kimono, allowing you to enjoy the garden comfortably during the warmer months.
