Overview
Let's try to deepen your understanding of the Japanese people's love of nature and the culture ikebana experience!!
Firstly, the interpreter will explain the history and spirit of ikebana at a flower store that has been loved by the locals for 70 years. After that, you will be able to choose one type of flower for yourself.
Then, You will travel from the flower store to the classroom through the Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter with an interpreter.
A teacher from Ikenobo, Japan's oldest school of Ikebana, who has been arranging flowers for 65 years, will teach you everything from techniques to etiquette.
This tour is not just a hands-on experience, but also a springboard to a deeper understanding of Ikebana and Japanese culture.
The spirit of ikebana is rooted in the idea of giving life back to life by arranging flowers that had once been cut off by plucking.
If flower arrangement is an aesthetic of addition, ikebana is an aesthetic of subtraction.
