Why choose this Asakusa tour ?

We offer an experience of making handmade Japanese paper, a traditional Japanese craft.
Tosa Washi is one of Japan’s three major traditional papers, with a history of over 1,000 years.
It is known for its durability and warmth.This activity is easy to try and makes for a memorable part of your visit to Asakusa.
Recommended for those who like crafts and Japanese culture/traditional crafts.

After watching a short video about the history and process of making Tosa Washi, you’ll put on traditional Japanese work clothes called “samue” and create your own washi paper with the help of a friendly instructor.
First, make a plain postcard and layer beautiful colored paper called [Rakusui-shi] on top. There are various colors, so please choose your favorite 4 pieces.
The workshop is filled with lively laughter, and many people are captivated by the beauty of their finished Japanese paper.
We hope you’ll take home your own washi paper as a special souvenir.
