Experience the charm of traditional Japanese crafts: Asakusa Ichihara Shoten straw sandal weaving.

When you come to Asakusa, the most Edo-style area in Tokyo, in addition to strolling around in a kimono, you can't miss the in-depth cultural experience of making your own traditional Japanese footwear! "Ichihara Shoten" is located in the heart of Asakusa's tourist area, just a 3-minute walk from Asakusa Station and a 1-minute walk from Senso-ji Temple. It is extremely convenient to get to and is the perfect choice for your day trip in Asakusa.

In this experience, you will be guided by a professional craftsman to elegantly tie on the apron provided in the store and learn step by step how to "make" traditional straw sandals. You can choose your favorite straw sandal base and nose knot pattern on-site, infusing the craftsman's spirit into the weaving process. The exquisite straw sandals you make by hand can be taken home as souvenirs, leaving you with a practical and culturally rich unique memory of your trip to Tokyo.
