About This Tour
Only 1 train ride from Shinjuku! You can enjoy kimono as a preview of sightseeing in Tokyo. If you come early, you can explore the west side of Tokyo (for example, Takahata-fudouson Kongoji Temple, Mt. Takao, etc.) after this lesson. All the kimonos in my collection were hand-picked and purchased by me. Some items were donated by friends, and they all have history and weren’t mass-produced. Not all but many kimonos are made of silk. I want you to feel the texture of Japanese silk. This cultural experience will take place at my house in a traditional tatami room. And we also have tea with Japan sweets. Options : Professional photography during the lesson. Includes portfolio shoot and online raw data for up to 10 pictures per person plus up to 20 snapshots taken during the lesson.
