"Flower" is described in the "Kaden-sho" as the essence of art that evokes emotion in the viewer and makes them want to return.

With this in mind, we have named our establishment "Kyoto Arashiyama Onsen Kaden-sho." We strive daily to provide our guests with moments of joy and inspiration.

The location is believed to be the site of Emperor Kanmu's Oi Imperial Villa, which he frequently visited during his reign (781-806), as referenced in "Nihon Kiryaku." (An excavation conducted on our premises in 1988 uncovered remains of a garden from the early Heian period, suggesting a high possibility that this was the site of Emperor Kanmu's Oi Imperial Villa.) In "The Tale of Genji," Chapter 18 "Matsukaze," written in the mid-Heian period, a residence near the Oi River serves as the setting.
