The concept of the autumn garden is the unity of traditional culture.

"NAKED GARDEN ONE KYOTO" is an art project planned by creative company NAKED, INC., which sees Kyoto as a single garden and unites Kyoto beyond the boundaries of all genres. It started in 2022 and is now in its third year. So far, a total of 43 locations, mainly in the Kyoto area, NAKED, INC. participated, co-creating events, works and projects with the people of Kyoto.

The concept of NAKED GARDEN ONE KYOTO 2024 Fall Season is "UNITE TRADITIONAL CULTURE". There are 9 participating locations. Each location has a theme that allows you to feel the traditional culture and history. Traditional culture and history will be fused with NAKED art to create a new cultural experience, with Japanese cuisine at Nijo Castle, Gagaku at Nishi Honganji, Noh, Ikebana and Kyoto cuisine at Higashi Honganji, and Japanese candles at NAKED, INC. Temple on Mount Hiei. In addition, autumn events at Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, Kurodani Konkai Komyo-ji Temple, and Ninna-ji Temple, famous spots for autumn leaves where you can feel the traditions of Japan, will also be participating. In addition, to commemorate the autumn garden, NIDEK Kyoto Tower will be lit up in red, the theme color of the autumn garden.

Through this art project, the ONE KYOTO Executive Committee, which is the organizer of the project, will promote Kyoto's culture and history using unique venues, and in 2024 will create nighttime content to promote tourism in Kyoto at night, thereby promoting decentralized tourism in time and place, which will help combat overtourism, an issue that has become particularly important in recent years.
