Overview
We offer an experience of making handmade Japanese paper, a traditional Japanese craft.
Tosa Washi is one of Japan's three major traditional papers, with a history of over 1,000 years.
It is known for its durability and warmth.This activity is easy to try and makes for a memorable part of your visit to Asakusa.
Recommended for those who like crafts and Japanese culture/traditional crafts.
After watching a short video about the history and process of making Tosa Washi, you'll put on traditional Japanese work clothes called "samue" and create your own washi paper with the help of a friendly instructor.
The workshop is filled with lively laughter, and many people are captivated by the beauty of their finished Japanese paper.
We hope you'll take home your own washi paper as a special souvenir.
