Overview

We welcome both first-time visitors and repeat guests.
This is a rare opportunity to experience traditional Japanese craftsmanship that you won’t find on typical Kyoto tours.
During the factory visit, you'll observe expert artisans at work, and in the workshop, you'll become a craftsperson yourself by creating a one-of-a-kind goshuincho.
After the experience, we encourage you to enjoy Kyoto’s temples with your personally made stamp book in hand.

What's included

  • All materials and tools necessary for the workshop experience.

What to expect

You will start with a guided tour of our factory, where you can observe skilled artisans producing goshuincho (temple stamp books), folding screens, and traditional Japanese notebooks—items that are rarely seen up close. After the tour, you'll participate in a workshop where you can craft your own goshuincho using your choice of decorative "yuzen washi" paper from over 20 patterns.
Our workshop is located near famous Kyoto temples such as To-ji, so we recommend taking your completed goshuincho and visiting some temples after the activity
