About This Experience in Kyoto

Immerse yourself in the charm of Kyoto’s Gion district and experience the quiet art of Japanese craftsmanship. In this intimate one-hour workshop, you’ll design and craft your own pair of wooden chopsticks under the guidance of a local artisan, using time-honored tools and methods passed down through generations. The experience begins with an introduction to the history and symbolism of chopsticks in Japanese culture. As you carefully carve and polish your chopsticks, you’ll come to understand how each detail—shape, balance, and texture—reflects the Japanese philosophy of harmony and simplicity. No prior experience is needed. Your instructor will guide you step by step, ensuring the process is relaxing and enjoyable for everyone. By the end of the session, you’ll complete a unique set of chopsticks to take home—beautifully wrapped and ready to use or share as a thoughtful souvenir.
