In the Kaga Yuzen coloring experience, anyone can enjoy the seemingly difficult traditional techniques in a short amount of time and create their own original items. On the day of your trip, you can return home with a one-of-a-kind item in your hand and wonderful memories of your trip.

Experiences like this will be part of your memorable trip. If you come to Kanazawa! You can have fun on both sunny and rainy days! Kanazawa is a city where kimonos look great, but it's a waste to just go sightseeing! It rains a lot in Kanazawa, so I was worried about whether I would be able to wear a kimono and take a leisurely stroll...With the Kaga Yuzen coloring experience, you don't have to worry about that at all! -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------<Plan details> ①Reception. Our store has a very homely atmosphere and our friendly staff (so friendly that they always get along with our customers...LOL) will guide you around. ② Add color to the fabric. Start coloring under the guidance of the Kaga Yuzen artist. There is no answer to how to paint! There are many ways to paint boldly and carefully! We will add color using the real dye used in Kaga Yuzen. ③Finishing process Once the coloring is complete, the Kaga Yuzen artist performs the final steps such as washing with water. You can take it home on the same day. Anyone from children to adults can experience it.

There are many attractive experiences to experience the good old days of Japan when you visit Kanazawa, but here we will introduce one of them, the "oiran experience". "oiran" originally refers to geisha, who were the most highly ranked and attractive geisha in the Edo period. They attracted many people with their beautiful kimonos, refined behavior, and artistic skills, and their appearance and style still influence many people today. In the oiran experience, you can transform yourself into an oiran with their distinctive costume and makeup and experience that world. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------＜What is an oiran experience? ＞You can have a fascinating experience as if you have traveled back in time to the Edo period! You will feel great and enjoy it! You will discover a new you! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------＜Plan contents＞① Reception will be on the 2nd floor. ② Choose a kimono on the 4th floor. Our shop has a very homey atmosphere and friendly staff (so friendly that they always become friends with customers...lol). Choose your favorite kimono from several types of kimono, put it on, and we also have a dedicated hairdresser on site, so you can leave your hair set with your favorite hair accessories! ③ After dressing, we will take a photo at the Oiran Studio.
