Yesterday, we had a wonderful family from New York visit AriHana Kyoto! It was their first time trying traditional Japanese activities, and they truly enjoyed every moment. From learning origami together as a family to playing classic Japanese games, even the parents were fully engaged and curious.
Their child had such a great time, they asked to stay longer — and of course, we were happy to extend the fun!
It was heartwarming to see the whole family enjoying a slow, meaningful experience of Japanese culture. 💮
