I was very appreciative of the help Niko gave in making the bamboo lantern. She explained the bamboo industry is diminishing, a craft project will help a little.

We had a great time creating our lanterns, combining patterns to make them one-of-a-kind. It was a perfect way to relax after a busy day of sight seeing. We really enjoyed meeting Masa and learning a bit about the history of Beppu. Massa also pointed the way and even made us a reservation at an excellent izakaya where we had some great local dishes. Highly recommend this.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed creating your unique lanterns and had a relaxing time after sightseeing. Masa will be happy to hear your kind words, and we’re delighted he could help make your evening special with the izakaya reservation. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again soon!

The lantern making was a very good experience. Those who helped us with the craft were very friendly, and explained the process well. We were given templates to use or we could use our creativity (we used the templates). We enjoyed this experience very much.
