Description
In Matsumoto, a town where rich nature and tradition combine, you can experience three traditional Japanese cultures at once: kimono, rickshaw, and shamisen. [Kimono selection/dressing/hair set] Please choose your favorite kimono at "Hanakomichi" in front of Matsumoto Castle. We can also assist you in coordinating items according to the season and the customer. Dressed in traditional Japanese costumes and having your hair styled by a stylist, you will be able to feel the Japanese etiquette through your attire. Now the nostalgic experience begins. [Round around Matsumoto Castle and the castle town by rickshaw] A rickshaw will pick you up at "Hanakomichi". Enjoy the atmosphere of a castle town while listening to the history of Matsumoto Castle and town from the hawker. Along the way, we will talk about recommended shops and information that may not be found in guidebooks, tailored to your interests. At the end of the tour, we will drop you off at the shamisen shop "Kikuoka Matsuno" in Nakamachi. The view from the rickshaw is higher than usual. It will be an elegant moment. [Learn about the shamisen from a musician and watch a live performance] At the end of the experience, go to the shamisen shop "Kikuoka Matsuno" and enjoy a shamisen performance experience under the guidance of a musician and a live performance just for customers. The sound of the shamisen that you hear live is truly the traditional sound of Japan. Experience the unique aesthetic sense and sensibility of the Japanese through the shamisen, which has been loved for a long time in Japan. The sound of the shamisen echoing through Matsumoto, a town where tradition and nature blend together, will surely make your trip an unforgettable memory.
