Appreciate crafting and deep relaxation in the nature of Keihoku Day tour with a woodcarving experience and an outdoor sauna
Keihoku—the traditional rural landscape of the Kyoto area—where lush forests and a rural atmosphere unfold. Keihoku—the traditional rural landscape of the Kyoto area—where lush forests and a rural atmosphere unfold. Have a good time making tableware using the wood of Keihoku and a forest sauna in this plan. EARTH SAUNA operates “Keihokudo,” a maker and seller of handcrafts and more using wood in Keihoku. You will learn from an artisan and produce a 3-piece set in this woodcarving experience, including chopsticks, a chopstick rest and a tray made from a log. After you have experienced woodcarving in a warm, natural atmosphere protected by unfurling blue skies and woods, you will visit a sauna in a forest that will stimulate your senses, where you will spend time relaxing your mind and body.
