Why You Should Visit

A handmade market held twice a year, in spring and autumn, around the Kitayama Gate of Kyoto Botanical Garden; this is the 24th edition. Around 130 booths sell accessories, fabric goods, woodwork, leather, floral crafts, ceramics and paper crafts, alongside baked sweets and bread, and the Kyoto Pan Garden Marche corner gathers bakeries with shops in Kyoto. An acoustic live programme, music Garden, runs in the Kitayama Gate Plaza on the same day. The Eco-Roji lane outside the garden is free to enter; only the plaza inside the gate needs the garden admission ticket, so it pairs well with a walk through the botanical garden.
