Just an 8-minute walk from Enso Machiya

“Kokuho,” directed by Lee Sang-il, became the highest-grossing Japanese live-action film of all time and was shot largely in Kyoto. The story follows Kikuo and Shunsuke as they train in the demanding world of Kabuki—a highly stylized form of performance that traces its roots back to the Edo period.

While visiting Kyoto, step into this centuries-old tradition at Minamiza Theatre, one of the city’s most historic kabuki stages located in the Higashiyama district. Witness the artistry, movement, and storytelling of kabuki live.
