What to expect
Step into the world of Nagoya Chōchin, lanterns that have illuminated Japan for over 400 years. Developed under the Tokugawa shoguns, they feature lightweight bamboo frames and glowing washi paper. In the early Meiji era, Nagoya was Japan’s leading producer of paper lanterns, exporting them abroad as symbols of refined Japanese artistry. Still used in temples, festivals, and décor, they remain a warm link between past and present.
At Wazamon Chaya in Japan Culture Village, learn their history before making your own. Select washi paper, paste it to the frame, and assemble a foldable lantern to take home. Afterward, enjoy strolling the village, where shrines, shops, and cafés blend tradition with modern culture.
