"Kyoto 100 Years Karuta" is a collection of stories related to "Kyoto's long-established stores" that have been in business for over 100 years. Without using the Internet, 50 long-established stores were visited, and only raw information gathered on foot was used. The back of the picture card shows the store's exterior and the year it was founded. In addition, information that did not fit on the reading card and a map of Kyoto's 100 years of travel are written in the attached leaflet, so you can have fun while learning about Kyoto's history. "Kyoto's long-established stores" are often thought to have a high barrier to entry, but the reading card tells you that this is not actually the case. Be sure to get your hands on an item that will give you a feel for the city of Kyoto, which everyone dreams of visiting at least once.
