Japanese girls like to wear kimonos when they go to China, but why do Japanese girls seldom wear them?

With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, modern people like to travel abroad more and more, especially abroad, so that they can not only feel exotic customs, but also gain a wave of praise from friends. Of course, in the era of the rise of experience tourism, people like to travel, not only to reach the destination, but also to enjoy all kinds of fun during the journey, hoping to better participate in the daily life of people in the destination, such as trying to make local food by themselves. I believe these are what many tourists want to experience when they travel abroad.

Because of this, many China girls who travel to Japan will want to wear beautiful kimonos and leave beautiful memories under the cherry trees, at the gate of torii and in the streets. But I don't know if these friends who travel to Japan have found that kimono, as a representative of Japanese women's clothing, is rarely worn by local people. What is the reason?

Kimono originated from the official clothes of China in Sui and Tang Dynasties and was introduced to Japan. After many improvements by the Japanese, it gradually developed into the kimono we see today. Nowadays, kimono has long been a traditional national costume of the Japanese, and the Japanese have integrated their national habits and traditional concepts into kimono. The pattern on the kimono is exquisite and elegant, and every stitch and thread comes from the Japanese people's love for the local landscape and their own country. Kimono is an important representative of Japanese culture. It can even be said that kimono is a symbol of Japan.

For the Japanese, kimono is of great significance. In modern times, people only choose to wear kimono on important occasions or festivals, such as weddings, funerals, graduation ceremonies, or celebrating Children's Day, adult ceremony and so on. In addition, as we all know, traditional clothing is not only complicated to make, but also exquisite in workmanship. Even a design needs careful consideration, which is particularly troublesome to wear. The Japanese kimono is also very tall. So for young people who like freedom and simplicity today, it is naturally simple and comfortable.

Bian Xiao believes that because kimono is the representative of a country's culture, people can still be encouraged to wear more clothes in their daily lives. If fewer and fewer people wear clothes, this culture will gradually decline over time. Now, the "Hanfu fever" in our country is rising again, doesn't it mean that we pay more and more attention to traditional culture?
