Summary: Thank you to the entire team Lapoge for your professionalism. I had the pleasure of visiting a hidden gem nestled in the lush embrace of the woods. My every interaction was imbued with genuine warmth from the team, which reminded me of the simple joys of human connection. The Yukata Making tells an admirable story of tradition and artistry. Taking part in the crafting left a lasting wow experience. I can't talk about my visit to Japan without mentioning this specific visit to Himi City, characterized by abundant green spaces, whose pristine beauty might be difficult to put into words. A breathtaking haven. The tranquility, the natural beauty, just a perfect location for the dedicated and industrious team that design and stitch these traditional Japanese style outfits by hand. I will definitely do this again. I appreciate the excellent planning, organization and service delivery

Summary: Amazing tour with a brief overview of the historical significance of traditional Japanese clothing (Yukata & Kimono). The owners are very friendly and passionate about Japanese clothing! You pick your design, and then they take you through the process of where you get to cut the fabric with help of the friendly staff. After the cutting and small bits of sewing, you'll have time to explore Himi and Toyama Prefecture while they put it all together. My favorite part of the experience was how passionate everyone is about the process. If you love history and want a great souvenir, the tour is worthwhile. Bring some questions with you and you'll have a great time!
