4.2～4.5 Is Kyoto Still Worth Visiting During Rainy Season? 😭 Just checked the forecast – looks like we’re in for cloudy skies and showers throughout the trip.
The round-trip flights are costing 2k, plus another 4k for a 3-day hotel stay – that’s quite an investment for potentially wet weather!
I’m seriously debating whether to postpone until the off-season when prices drop and the crowds thin out… What would you do in this situation?
The rainy season in Kyoto actually has its own unique charm – imagine glistening cobblestone streets, fewer tourists, and lush gardens at their most vibrant. But is that worth the premium price tag?
Maybe we could compromise – shorten the trip or find budget accommodations? Or is the magic of Kyoto worth experiencing rain or shine? Would love to hear others’ experiences visiting during similar weather!
I feel your pain—rainy cherry blossom season can be tough. But Kyoto is beautiful even without sun, so if it’s doable budget-wise, maybe consider packing some rain gear and going for it? You could always adjust plans last minute if it gets too miserable.
