A hidden gem that satisfies all five senses.

Taking a step away from the busy city
is lush greenery, gentle breeze, and flowing water.

A town loved by nature, Kibune.
A hidden gem in the corner of the town, WHAT'S.
Enjoy the marriage of tradition and modernity,
feel the refreshing nature at the finger tips,
and spend this irreplaceable moment with loved ones.

Please experience a time that stimulates all five senses.

A wonderful time at a kawadoko
surrounded by nature.

Location

A kawadoko in Kibune where the water is almost in arms reach.
Listen carefully to the sound of the flowing river, feel the soothing breeze,
and bask in the warm sunlight filtering through the trees
for a truly breathtaking experience unique to the place.
From the wide-open windows, enjoy the fleeting yet beautiful melody
played by the gentle rain.

A harmony of tradition and modernity.

Tradition and Enterprise

While upholding the modesty and "wabi-sabi" of Japan,
modern designs are also beautifully incorporated into the interior of the restaurant.
Please spend a cozy time with loved ones
surrounded by sliding doors fitted with "karakami",
a traditional paper craft in Kyoto known for its colorful patterns.
