Traditional Japanese Calligraphy Experience (Near Tokyo Tower)

Become an expert calligrapher in this hands-on dynamic session near Tokyo Tower!

Here in Japan, calligraphy is more than just writing. We inherited our complex writing system from China over a thousand years' ago, and there's hundreds of years worth of story, evolution and meaning behind each character, and in turn, how we approach calligraphy.

At True Japan Tour, our professional, bilingual calligraphers teach you this fascinating history and more, equipping you with the skills and techniques that Japanese calligraphers have been perfecting for centuries. All in the confines of our state-of-the-art Grand TJT experiences room!

All our customers make their very own souvenir wall piece, so if you're looking for that perfect souvenir for a special someone back home, look no further.

Want to leave Japan with more than a picture of Mount Fuji? Let out your inner artist and give Japanese calligraphy a try!
