The kumihimo experience was a lovely and relaxing way to connect with traditional Japanese craftsmanship. The setting was peaceful, and I enjoyed learning how to weave the beautiful braids by hand.
The guide was informative, kind, and very helpful throughout the process. They explained the history and role of kumihimo in Japanese culture, and guided us step-by-step with patience and care.
It was both a cultural and creative experience, and I’m so happy to take home a handmade souvenir with personal meaning. Highly recommended for anyone looking to try something authentic and hands-on while in Japan!
