What to expect

Immerse yourself in Japanese culture with a hands-on craft experience in Kyoto. Learn about goshuin culture and make your own personalized goshuin-style book and traditional Japanese artwork.

Begin by meeting your friendly English-speaking instructor and learning about the meaning and history of goshuin, the traditional stamps and calligraphic inscriptions associated with visits to Japanese temples and shrines.

Create your own goshuin-style book and learn how to decorate and personalize it using Japanese-inspired designs, stamps, colors, and traditional craft techniques. The instructor guides you step by step, making the activity suitable for complete beginners with no artistic or craft experience.

Focus on creating something personal and memorable rather than simply watching a demonstration. Experiment, choose your own designs, and add your own creative touches. Take home your finished goshuin-style book and artwork as a unique handmade souvenir from Kyoto.
