About Kyoto

Which season sees the largest numbers of tourists?

The cherry blossom season, i.e. late March to early April, and the autumn leave season, i.e. mid-November to early December, see the largest numbers of tourists to Kyoto. Besides, it is crowded, for example in mid-July as well, when the Gion Matsuri Festival is in full swing. Also, we predict the extent of crowdedness in and around popular tourist spots according to each time range and stream real-time information by means of live camera footage, so please enjoy seeing the sights of Kyoto in a reassuring, safe, comfortable way, carefully avoiding times and places with crowdedness.
