Things to do in Rurikō-in Temple

The experience was fun for the whole family. It wasn't too difficult to shave the wood, even for my 8 yr old. We chose Sugi, Walnut, Sakura, and Purple Heart. Victor K. was very helpful, professional, and patient. He provided clear instructions and helpful hints to make the beautiful chopsticks. You can tell he truly enjoys the craft of making chopsticks. The personalized engraving was a fun extra we all loved.

It was a unique experience that I thoroughly enjoyed, from getting fitted in the kimono and having my hair styled, to the incredible tea ceremony where everything was explained, and even being able to wear the kimono to walk around the city. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience. Not only was the show incredibly entertaining but it was also very informative and educational regarding the history of Rikishi. 100% recommended.

An absolute must see. We were running late for our entry time due to a family emergency but they still let us in and placed us with a group. Our tour guides Ara and Nana were a treat. the Ninja Star throwing was so much fun. highly recommend.

Nijo Castle Gardens in a magic athmosphere! The music, projections and lighting turns the gardens into an other-worldly, deeply relaxing place.

We loved the class!! It was a lot of fun, our teacher Cerise was super nice, guided us, and told us the beautiful story of kintsugi. The activity includes a small white plate, but you can buy others if you prefer. The place is easy to find, pleasant, and they sell very nice kintsugi jewelry. I highly recommend it!!!

It is a great experience, the duration mentioned for the tour is quite accurate, and we had the opportunity to relive our childhood.

The staff, including the owner, hair stylist, and makeup artist, provided wonderful service and were so sweet. They even offered me a dress that was not included in the basic package at no extra charge. Moreover, the photographer I booked was lovely and provided great service. She is a Chinese photographer and even edited two extra photos for me as an apology for arriving late. I highly recommend this shop!

I love this show. The show is interactive i.e. the crowd would clap along to the drums, or one of the cast would as the crowd to hit the drum during the show. Totally recommend going to this show.
