Bringing Japan’s Regions and Culture to the World

We connect the culture, communities, people and businesses found across Japan with visitors from around the world, creating new exchange and new business. More than sightseeing — through experiences that can only be had in that place, we widen the circle of region × culture × people.

Gifu Heritage Stay

A residential programme staying in a traditional kominka house, experiencing everyday Japanese life. Rather than touring sights, you enter regional Japan — meeting local people and experiencing the culture and life of the place. Based in a Gifu kominka, this experience-based stay offers encounters with traditional homes, kimono, food, local culture, artisans, nature and the local community.

ORDER MADE KIMONO

Made-to-order kimono and kimono experiences — turning Japan’s traditional dress from something to look at into an experience of your own. For guests from overseas, we offer bespoke kimono, kimono-wearing and cultural experiences, including kimono photo sessions, professional dressing, tea ceremony and Japanese culture programmes, special dinners, and sales of kimono and Japanese cultural items overseas.
