In the spring of 2025, 65 years after its opening in Shishigatani, Higashiyama, Kyoto, the museum will reopen with a new look after a year of renovation work. The first commemorative event will feature a carefully selected collection of masterpieces of art and crafts from Japan, China, and Korea from ancient times to the early modern period, focusing on the art pieces handed down by the Sumitomo family, which have always been the core of the museum's activities. These include masterpieces that have been famous since ancient times, excellent pieces that have been discovered to have new value over time, and rare pieces that have the potential to attract attention in the future. Each piece shows a different expression each time you encounter them, sometimes noble, sometimes gentle. This is a rare opportunity to rediscover the depth of the timeless Sumitomo Collection, which touches the hearts of all who see it.

Before the Qingming holiday this year, I took a day trip to Kansai, Japan, in late March and early April. I chose to take the subway from the city to Madiku Station. I walked for a few minutes to Kagooka Station. I booked a one-way ticket for the small train in Trip.com in advance. I specially set this semi-open carriage. From Guigang Station, pass Baojin Gorge, and finally get off at Lushan Station. This season, the cherry blossoms 🌸 are opening, and you can experience the pleasant scenery along the way. I imagine how dreamy the cherry blossoms are when they are in full bloom.

Mountain climbing

一直在路上的猫

Located in the northwest of Kyoto City, the eastern edge of Danbo Heights, it is known as &quot;Kyoto&#39;s first victory&quot;. Inside: Yuye Bamboo Forest, Duyue Bridge, Lushan Park (composed of Guishan, Nakanoshima, Linchuan Temple, there are red pine, cherry blossom trees, maple trees, etc., as well as squares, resting places, observation deck and other facilities.), Tianlong Temple, Nomiya Shrine and other shrines. There is also Iwatashan Monkey Park. The Ping An era is an aristocratic resort, the Edo era has become a temple and shrine center, and the Meiji Renovation has gradually become a tourist attraction. ◦ You can take the Sapporo sightseeing train: drive along the Baojinchuan River Valley, the whole journey is 7.3 kilometers, about 25 minutes a way, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the four seasons. ◦ Baojinchuan rafting cruise: You can experience it in Guigang, cross the Qingshan Canyon to the Duyue Bridge, the fare is 4,100 yen for adults. I actually felt good after a tour, especially compared with the famous Sichuan Mountain of the motherland. The scenery is more exquisite and there is nothing special.

Best Things to Do

学校🏫

Gion: Geisha phantom and capital meat grinder, Kyoto&#39;s most dangerous Ukiyo-e Is it worth going? If you want to dissect the dark fairy tale of Japanese aesthetics, it&#39;s worth it! But under the stone slabs of each flower-viewing path are tourists&#39; IQ taxes - this is the Disneyland of geisha culture, and you are a human ATM. 
Hard-core truth: blood and gold on the shamisen strings 
Chemical war on the back of the neck of the maiko: under the white powder is not the legendary &quot;swan neck&quot;, but the scar of collodion burns - traditional geishas need to use glue to straighten the neck lines. The young girl kneels in front of the mirror at 3 a.m. and uses a bone brush knife to smooth the skin texture, just for a 0.5-second glimpse in your lens at dusk. 
The indulgence system of Ichiriki Tea House: The private banquet behind the door curtain costs ￥300,000 per night, and what they drink is not wine but class sacrifice. But when you open the tatami secret compartment, the contract signed by the prostitutes in the Meiji period sleeps with this morning&#39;s credit card bill - a century of exploitation has never evolved, only the payment method has changed. 
The physical scam of Yasaka Tower: Internet celebrity photographers will not say: The best camera position is on top of the power distribution box in the back alley of Tatsumi Daimyojin. What&#39;s even darker is that the tower lighting is sponsored by Sharp, and the LED color temperature is adjusted according to the new mobile phone products of the season - faith has long been adjusted by capital. 
The cyber torture device of Shirakawa Tsutsumi: pressure sensors are installed on the stone steps, and hidden spray devices (officially called &quot;moisturizing system&quot;) are triggered when the crowd is overloaded. The &quot;poetic scene&quot; of your kimono being wetted by water mist is actually a sewer strategy of big data to disperse the flow of people. 

Anti-harvest survival guide (more important than booking Kaiseki) 
Morning attack on ghost theater: 
5:00 squatting at the back door of Gion Kobu dance practice hall**, watching the geisha with bruises on her eyes after removing her makeup ride a shared bicycle home 
6:30 rush into the **Kenninji** abbot garden, the sand sound of monks sweeping fallen leaves is the real &quot;Kyoto sound&quot; 
Unlocking the midnight secret path: 
- 22:00 climb into the **Shimbashi Shirakawa** restricted area in the dark (Google Map 33.995&deg;N, 135.768&deg;E), the century-old chimney is reflected in the water like a giant harp 
- Every Friday on garbage day, throw away the sake lees in the back alley of Inoue Brewery, and dig out the yeast that brewed the geisha&#39;s lip balm with bare hands 
Fatal peak staggering technique: 
-Standing at Yasaka Shrine with a transparent umbrella on a rainy night, watching the red lanterns turn into blood mist in the rain curtain 
- On the 10th of every month, on Geisha Emblem Day, follow the kimono delivery truck to the Nishijin weaving workshop and pick up the gold thread scraps from the tailor&#39;s knife 

Magical realism attack 
When you scoop up matcha shaved ice in the tea house, the &quot;geisha&quot; outside the window suddenly takes off her wig - that&#39;s a part-time cross-dressing job for a Ukrainian student earning ￥1,500 per hour. Even more absurd is the Hanamikoji vending machine: put in ￥5,000 to get a &quot;Geisha Breathing Air Can&quot;, scan the code to display the ingredients list
