When I passed the Kyoto Shijō Minamiza Theatre, I was immediately drawn to this theater filled with traditional Japanese charm. Minamiza is one of Kyoto's most iconic kabuki theaters. Its exterior has a strong traditional Japanese feel and blends in with the surrounding Kyoto streetscape in a very distinctive way.
This time I only passed by and didn't plan to go inside for a performance, but after reading about the theater, I thought the kabuki viewing experience sounded quite special. I don't usually have many opportunities to experience traditional Japanese performing arts, so I think it would be interesting to see a performance in the theater in person.
