Tokyo Asakusa : Handmade Japanese Paper Workshop

Learn the art 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.

After watching a short video about the history and process of making Tosa Washi, put on traditional Japanese work clothes called "samue" and create your own washi paper with the help of a friendly instructor. The workshop is filled with lively laughter, and many people are captivated by the beauty of their finished Japanese paper.

In [Colored Paper Plan] , you will make your own postcard-sized washi paper and layer beautiful washi paper called "Rakusuishi" on top of it.
Craftsmen pour water onto washi paper, create various patterns, and then dye it to create beautiful and delicate washi paper called "Rakusuishi."
Choose your favorite one from among the dozens of types of Rakusuishi that have already been made, and layer it on top of the washi paper you made.
*Rakusuishi is not included in [Plain Paper Plan].

Take home your own washi paper as a special souvenir.
