Hiroshima : Koto, Kimono, Photo shoot Traditional ExperienceHiroshima Downtown: Koto and Kimono Traditional Experience

You can experience 4 Japanese traditions. First, you can choose a kimono. While wearing the kimono, you can enjoy playing the koto, taking selfies in a studio, and strolling the Japanese garden.
First, you will wear a kimono, a traditional Japanese outfit. You can choose from a wide variety of kimonos. After putting on the kimono, you can use a photo studio to take selfies with a DSLR camera. The studio has a large monitor that shows the pictures you took, allowing you to check all your photos immediately and take unlimited photos within 15 minutes.

Next, you can stroll through the traditional Japanese garden, Shukkeien, while wearing the kimono. It's just a 1-minute walk from our studio. Strolling there is a perfect match for a kimono. If you have time, you can also visit Hiroshima Castle (about 10 minutes on foot) and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park (about 20 minutes on foot).

Then, you will experience playing a traditional Japanese instrument, the koto. You will be able to play a complete piece within a 90-minute session. All lessons will be conducted in English.
