NISHIYAMA RYOKAN

Socks are usually sold 1000 yen for 3 pairs in Japan. I believe this is the most common price for socks here. There are many diffirent kinds of socks. For example cute one, funny one or ugly one... etc There are Japanese taste socks like this picture. Why don't you buying these socks as souvenirs to your friends?? I bet you can find the store selling socks ealily. Come to think of it, my mom gave Japanese socks to my foreign friends as souvenirs. The other day my sister also gave them to my another foreign friend. We are socks family...

There are 2 type of Yatsuhashi. one is Baked Yatsuhashi and another one is raw Yatsuhashi. BakedYATSUHASHI is like cinnamon cookie . Raw YATSUHASHI (Nama yatsuhashi) has a soft texture and is often eaten wrapped around red bean paste and may come in a variety of different flavours. my favorite flavour is sesame paste raw yatsuhashi.

If you like it you can buy them for souvenir from Kyoto. Yatuhashi is most popular souvenir from Kyoto!
