In June, Kyoto Prefecture will enter a transition period from spring to summer. From the middle of June, it will be a rainy season of about a month called “Tsuyu”. At this time, even Japanese people are wondering what kind of clothes to wear. It’s not hot enough to say summer yet. But it’s very humid. The temperature in the center of Kyoto City, which is located in the basin, is high, and you will feel that summer is near. Miyama Town in the mountains is relatively cool. Maizuru is also cooler than Kyoto City.
