What to expect

Step into the elegance of traditional Japan on Dejima, Nagasaki's small island that was once Japan's only gateway to the West. Begin by choosing your favorite kimono from a beautiful collection, and let the experienced staff dress you in authentic Japanese attire. Then enter a room faithfully reconstructed from that same era, where a professional instructor will guide you through the graceful movements and posture of Burabura-bushi, a traditional folk dance rooted in the geisha culture once welcomed here - the only Japanese women allowed inside these walls when Japan was closed to the outside world. Now it's your turn: dressed in your own kimono, you'll dance within those same walls, imagining the geisha who once did the same, centuries ago - a connection to the past found nowhere else in Japan. No previous experience is required, making this the perfect introduction to Japanese culture for first-time visitors, and a rare chance to discover Japanese hospitality, history, and performing arts in the very place where Japan once met the world.
