プランの魅力 Because it's hot in the summer... の画像

Because it's hot in the summer... Summers in modern Japan are so hot that wearing a kimono isn't recommended, but since this is a rare opportunity, why not try wearing one indoors over your clothes?

It's free!! You can borrow a kimono for free if you just want to put it on over your clothes, so why not try wearing one? Feel free to take photos and videos and enjoy!

Calligraphy experience You will also have the opportunity to try grinding ink for a short time. After that, we will have a few examples prepared so you can choose the character you want to write and practice it on a piece of paper. We will also teach you how to hold the brush, your posture, and the key points of writing.

プランの魅力 You can take the colored paper home with you. の画像

You can take the colored paper home with you. Finally, you will be asked to write your final copy on a colored paper. We also have stamps available. Translate your name into hiragana, stamp that character, and your work is complete! Of course, you can take home your finished work!

Matcha experience This is not a full-scale tea ceremony, but rather a casual experience for everyone to enjoy. There will be no complicated etiquette involved, and you will only be able to experience making matcha.

Let's make some matcha ♪ You will be asked to prepare the amount of tea you will be drinking yourself. Is this the first place in Japan where you can experience calligraphy and matcha at the same time? It's a rare and unusual experience, so I think it will be an unforgettable one.

"Nerikiri" "Nerikiri" is a Japanese sweet made with bean paste that is beautifully and delicately crafted to reflect the seasons.

Please enjoy ♪ I think matcha that you make yourself tastes even better. Try eating it with nerikiri.

プランの魅力 Two at the same time in Fukuoka...only here!! の画像
