Soft and fragrant "Kyoto It is a set of chopstick making of the famous wood Kitayama cedar "and a cupboard making of Yuzen that dyes a pattern using a pattern. Every time the wood is squeezed lightly, a faint scent spreads around. Why don't you try to make chopsticks in one room of Kyomachiya where such air flows?

This was a nice experience where you get to create your own chopsticks basically from scratch, by shaving and sanding them from more or less raw pieces of wood. Finally, you can also decorate a little bag to carry them. In total it took around 2 hours for a completely handmade souvenir, and I had a lot of fun. The only potential downside is that the wood used is a very soft one, which makes it easy to work with, but that could impact the durability of the chopsticks. So treat them more as a souvenir and care for them properly.
