Kiwami Lantern Workshop in a Traditional Kurashiki Townhouse

Create a poetic “Sakura Light” lantern that projects cherry blossom patterns onto the floor — a signature Rakkō (falling light) design found only in Kurashiki. Experience Japanese craftsmanship inside Saikan, a 100-year-old townhouse along Achi Shrine’s peaceful approach. Blend tradition and creativity using Kurashiki-made masking tapes and delicate paper-cut art to design your own lantern. Guided by local artisans, enjoy a mindful, hands-on workshop suitable for couples, families, and art lovers. Take home a piece of Kurashiki, a handcrafted lantern that glows with the warmth and beauty of Japanese aesthetics.
