Cultural Experiences: Calligraphy
Travel back to the Edo era by experiencing traditional Japanese culture while you're in a traditional onsen town. Learn how to do traditional Japanese calligraphy, or one of our other cultural activities located here. To further enhance your cultural experience, you can choose to wear yukata or hakama while participating in the activity. This activity includes instruction (guidance) from an experienced staff member. Instructions will be given in a mix of English speaking, written directions, and the use of Pocketalk, a small two-way voice translation device. Have a friend or family member take photos of you to capture the moment.
With guidance from an experienced staff member, learn how to write Japanese calligraphy, known as shodo in Japanese. You can choose various words to write such as love (愛) or even Kinosaki (城崎). You will learn the correct stroke order, as well as the stylistic nuances. This activity can be done in yukata or hakama to enhance the experience.
