和堂書院 blends traditional Japanese aesthetics with contemporary design, offering a serene space for cultural experiences and beauty.



Up to 10 participants per group.
This is a Japanese calligraphy experience centered on Kanji. You can express your own name using Kanji, or write your favorite words, a personal motto, or a message to someone important to you. The finished artwork can be kept as a personal souvenir, or given as a meaningful gift to someone special.
Even first-time participants do not need to worry, as a calligraphy master will provide careful, step-by-step guidance throughout the experience. Please immerse yourself in the fragrance of ink and enjoy a calm, enriching, and peaceful time.
