On March 24 (Fri), Discover Noh in Kyoto will hold its first hiking tour version of the Nōwhere Tours. After exploring the “stage” of the noh play Kagetsu, Kiyomizu Temple, through the perspective of medieval performing art, we will hike in the hills behind the temple for about an hour and a half and go down to the Okazaki area and to the Kyoto Kanze Noh Theater where we will watch a performance of the play Kagetsu.
The NŌWHERE Tours are guided tours for both Kyoto residents and travelers in which we visit places or people related to nō plays and also enjoy performances or workshops.

*Must wear shoes compatible with mountain trails.
*In case of rain, we may decide not to take the hiking course and walk through the Gion-Maruyama area instead.
