Have you ever heard of Kodo, Japanese way of incense?
Most people would say “No”.
If you would like to experience something authentic and unique, and very few people have ever tried, I would definitely recommend this.
You can also enjoy calligraphy and green tea served with Japanese sweet.
This would be a valuable experience to be able to enjoy Japanese culture in a few hours.

Kodo started more than 1000 years ago in Japan. This is quite a unique culture to appreciate the aroma of a piece of wood which is more valuable than gold.
We also enjoy the game to tell the subtle difference of the aroma.
Focusing on the pleasant scent will bring you a meditation and make you feel refreshed.
Unlike the aromatic oil or perfume, Kodo is something to share with the people there.
By using the sense of smell, our memory and subconsciousness are withdrawn.
By breathing deeply to enjoy the beautiful smell, we can go deeply inside of us, like a meditation.
Never miss the chance to experience the fantastic world of Kodo.
