One of the distinctive features of Kyoto is its ability to transform with the changing seasons and weather. While Kyoto is captivating in any weather condition, it possesses a special charm when it rains. As raindrops gently cascade from the sky, a delicate mist envelops the nearby hills.

Nestled amidst this mist are the Higashiyama and Arashiyama hills, which provide a backdrop to Kyoto's urban landscape. The forests of Kyoto are composed of deciduous trees, such as maples and cherry blossoms, which paint the city in vibrant hues during the autumn and spring seasons.
