A wonderful personal addition to any trip! - This is a perfect small activity to do with friends and family during your visit to Kyoto. I was taught how to create traditional calligraphy and printed a post card on location with my art on it (one of my favorite souvenirs). The environment was very welcoming and all the staff were very engaged and pleasant to be around. Very English friendly. I would definitely do this again when I have the chance
