Top Kanto Lantern Festival

What makes this activity special is the rare opportunity to step inside a real, working lantern workshop in Tokyo and learn directly from a skilled chochin craftsman. Rather than a staged experience, guests take part in an authentic hands-on process using traditional washi paper and tools. Each participant creates a one-of-a-kind lantern to take home, making this not just a workshop, but a meaningful cultural experience and a lasting souvenir of Japan.

A cultural experience tour that leaves memories through scent. The tour begins with creating a lantern full of Edo-era charm, followed by a luxurious yakitori lunch with the savory aroma of charcoal. Afterward, enjoy a photo session at the historic Hie Shrine. Finally, create your own incense, capturing a fragrance unique to you. The moments of the journey become a scent that will unexpectedly return to you even after you’ve returned home—a truly special day awaits. 9:50~10:00：Meeting at the south exit of Minami-Senju Station 10:00~11:00：Lantern-making experience 11:00~12:00：Travel by metro 12:00~13:30：Lunch at Torikou 13:30~13:45：Travel on foot 13:45~14:30：Sightseeing at Hie Shrine 14:30~15:00：Travel by metro 15:00~16:00：Incense and fragrance ball-making experience 16:00：Dissolution ※If the minimum number of participants is not reached, there is a possibility of cancellation.
