Kyoto Weather in October

 A long-sleeve T-shirt, blouse, jeans, and causal trousers are good to fit the climate in Kyoto in October. To the end of October, visitors can top a vest, sweat shirt, knitted coat, leather jacket, or trench coat to handle the dropped temperature. When the temperature is lower at dawn or dusk, a thicker overcoat may be needed.Recommendation Rate: 

In October, Jidai Matsuri, or called Festival of the Ages, is the most magnificent event in Kyoto. Participators dressed as people in different ancient ages parade from Kyoto Imperial Palace to Heian Shrine. Come and witness the historical reproductions that seem to come through times. Kurama-no-Hi Matsuri is a fire festival in Kurama, a town in northern outskirts of Kyoto. Men holding torches parade along the street. As more and more people join in, the festival goes to its climax.

Kotobuki-kai dances, performed by geisha, are well worthy of watching at Kamishichiken Kaburenjo Theater. Visitors may take a stroll around the historic Gion, to experience Japanese charm in ancient times. Fushimi Inari Taisha, Kinkaku-ji Temple, The Philosopher's Path, etc. are also must-sees in Kyoto.
