This is history about kaga yuzen. We can see yuzen in Kyoto.
the style is not same kaga yuzen has original style and character.
You can understand difference style of kimono between old day and now.
I think kaga yuzen is more bright than kimono in Kyoto. Style in kyoto is
modest I think.

It is hard work to make kimono designer has good skill and they make original kimono
It is difficult skill and they have to practice for a long time.

You can see kaga yuzen art not only in kimono but also something.

I think most famous place of kimono in Japan is Kyoto and next is
Kanazawa. Both prefectures have long history and original culture.
There is a lot of foreigners to sightseeing. I think this is most important
thing to make original culture. They want to wish to understand their own culture
to foreigners.So they make kimono I think.

Thank you so much Miyako!!!
