Then, You will travel from the flower store to the classroom through the Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter with an interpreter.
A teacher from Ikenobo, Japan's oldest school of Ikebana, who has been arranging flowers for 65 years, will teach you everything from techniques to etiquette.
This tour is not just a hands-on experience, but also a springboard to a deeper understanding of Ikebana and Japanese culture.
