Itinerary

  • ACTIVITY
  • *The pin position does not indicate the exact location Choose a Place to do from..... Shibuya Shinjuku Ikebukuro Ginza Akihabara Ryogoku Ueno Ebisu Experience the authentic Culture of Japanese calligraphy, not in a tourist attraction but in a setting that feels true to Japanese life. Your guide will introduce the history of calligraphy — how it evolved uniquely in Japan with Hiragana and Katakana, and became a way to calm the mind much like the tea ceremony. You’ll then learn about the traditional tools — brush, ink, paper, and inkstone — and see how each contributes to the beauty of the art. After a demonstration, you will practice the essential brush strokes, including the famous “永” character, which contains all the basic techniques. Finally, you’ll create your own name in Kanji with a meaningful character chosen for you, and bring home your finished work as a special memory. To make the experience more personal, we offer different location options that can be arranged according to your needs — whether in a calm studio, a cultural venue, or a cozy local space. This is more than a lesson; it’s an authentic cultural exchange where you can truly feel the spirit of Japan.
