[北海道] Revive Tradition: Make Your Own Furoshiki at a Historic Dye House

• This tour is more than just a dyeing experience; it's a journey into the heart of Japanese culture, cherished by its people for generations.
• A furoshiki is more than a simple cloth. It reflects core Japanese values: the spirit of mottainai—minimizing waste and valuing resources; the power of flexible thinking; a respect for beauty and thoughtfulness; and practical wisdom in everyday life. As furoshiki draw global attention as eco-friendly bags, creating your own will be a treasured memory, a useful item for future travels, and a symbol of deeper cultural understanding.
• The experience takes place at a long-standing studio where kimono repair artisans have handed down their craft for generations. You'll feel the spirit of artisans who preserve tradition while embracing new challenges to carry their art into the future.
