We recently had a wonderful family visiting us all the way from Switzerland 🇨🇭
Their 4-year-old daughter especially loved origami and building with wooden blocks, while their 1-year-old son enjoyed exploring picture books and traditional Japanese toys like daruma otoshi. Even the parents joined in the fun—trying kendama, daruma otoshi, and tosengyo, and truly immersing themselves in Japanese traditional play. They loved the experience so much that they even took some toys home as souvenirs!
Time flew by until their next schedule, and we were so happy to hear their daughter say, “I want to keep playing!”—a heartwarming moment for us.
AriHana Kyoto is an indoor play space located near Kiyomizu-dera Temple, offering children and families a unique opportunity to experience traditional Japanese culture through hands-on activities such as origami, calligraphy, and classic Japanese games.
