Aizome Traditional Japanese Indigo Dyeing Workshop in Himeji
Duration
2 hours
Overview
-
Experience Aizome dyeing in the castle town of Himeji and bring home your own special Aizome item that will add some japanese flair to you life. Aizome is traditional indigo dyeing that has long been loved by Japanese people. In recent years, Aizome products such as jeans and bags are enjoying global popularity, thanks to its anti-bacterial and insect repellent properties, not to mention the stunning deep blue hue, also known as "Japan blue".
In this 2-hour workshop held at a traditional Japanese merchant house brimming with historic charm, you can create your own Aizome reusable bag or stoles with the expert help of an experienced and dedicated instructor. Or better yet, if you bring your own stuff such as a bandana or a t-shirt, you can dye it "Japan blue".
This is a perfect little activity to participate in on your way to or from the world heritage site, Himeji Castle.
