تستخدم هذه الورشة الخيزران المزروع محليًا فقط، لإنشاء هدايا تذكارية فريدة يمكن تخصيصها بالزخارف التي تختارها.

تركز ورشة عمل الخط هذه على إنشاء نص يتعلق بمنطقة الينابيع الساخنة المحيطة بمدينة بيبو. يمكن للمشاركين تعلم كيفية كتابة كلمات مثل "温泉" - "onsen" (بمعنى "ينبوع ساخن") و"地獄" - "jigoku" (بمعنى "الجحيم")، تحت إشراف مدرب محلي ودود. بالإضافة إلى إمكانية اصطحاب تحفتك الفنية الفريدة معك إلى المنزل، فهذه أيضًا فرصة رائعة لتغمر نفسك في سحر الثقافة اليابانية التقليدية، وتعلم ليس فقط التقنية ولكن أيضًا آداب الخط الياباني.

Not simply an art class, this unique activity is taught directly by a professional painter. Exclusive to Beppu, this workshop is led by renowned Japanese artist Tomoe Higashi, who also speaks English. Tomoe studied art at Bath Spa university in the United Kingdom, before returning to Japan to become a full-time artist. Offering a rare chance to interact with a local artist, this workshop is centred around creating personalised cherry-blossom inspired pieces, providing participants with a cultural and artistic souvenir to take home with them.

على عكس العديد من أنشطة الخط، يتم تدريس هذه الدورة بواسطة خطاط ياباني محترف. بالإضافة إلى تعلم كيفية كتابة الكلمات التي تختارها، ستتاح لك أيضًا فرصة نادرة لمشاهدة الدقة الجمالية لعرض الخط المباشر، مما يمنحك إحساسًا حقيقيًا بـ "wa" (和) - وهو مفهوم يعتز به اليابانيون منذ العصور القديمة.

Discover the art of wood-carving in this hands-on workshop, in which you’ll create your very own, custom-made accessory/keepsake. Guided by a skilled local artisan, you’ll carve intricate 'kanji' (Chinese characters) or a design of your choice into Japanese boxwood - a wood known for its beauty and use in traditional craftsmanship. This experience offers a wonderful opportunity to learn about local culture and artisan techniques. No prior experience is necessary - just bring your creativity!

What makes this activity special is the use of 'onsen' (hot spring) water direct from Beppu's water sources, in order to create natural colour variations that cannot be found elsewhere. Far more than just about dyeing fabric, the experience offers a chance to discover Beppu’s rich hot spring culture through colour and imagination. Unlike typical craft workshops, this is deeply connected to the land and traditions of Beppu, making for meaningful memories to take home with you. Whether you're travelling solo, with friends or with family, this activity offers a peaceful and personal way to connect with a truly special aspect of Japanese culture.

This ikebana workshop offers more than flower arranging. Led by an experienced instructor, it combines storytelling, mindfulness, and sustainability through the use of loss flowers. With its 'kamishibai' (paper story-telling) style introduction, interactive quiz, and hands on creation, participants experience Japanese culture in a calm, personal, and meaningful way. Each guest creates a unique arrangement and leaves feeling relaxed, inspired, and more connected to nature and Japan.

Create a one-of-a-kind bath bomb as a special memory of your trip to Beppu! At Yuasobi Lab, you can choose your favorite colors, scents, and decorations to make your own original bath bomb.
