Highlights
Join a friendly, beginner-friendly Japanese calligraphy workshop in Asakusa, led by a certified master of both calligraphy and traditional Japanese dance. Learn essential brush techniques while discovering the history, meanings, and cultural stories behind Japanese calligraphy. More than simply writing characters, this experience offers a relaxed and personal introduction to Japanese culture. After the workshop, you may find that the Japanese characters you see on street signs, shop curtains, and temples around the city look a little different—each one carrying a story you can now begin to recognize. Instruction is provided in English, all materials are included, and you will take home your own calligraphy artwork as a meaningful souvenir.

About Tokyo
Neon-lit districts, quiet shrines, superb food and distinct neighbourhoods make up Tokyo, a vast, orderly metropolis linked by punctual trains.
Every district feels like its own city. Shibuya's famous scramble crossing and Shinjuku's towers, bars and Golden Gai alleys pulse with energy, while Harajuku mixes youth fashion with the forested calm of the Meiji Jingu shrine. In Asakusa, the Sensō-ji temple and its market street keep an older Tokyo alive, and Ginza offers polished department stores and galleries.
Top-ranked sights in Tokyo: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
