Hiroshima Calligraphy: Create Your Own Kanji Art & Souvenir

Shodō, or Japanese calligraphy, is the traditional art of expressing words and emotions with brush and ink.
Each stroke carries balance, beauty, and spirit.

Step into a stylish art studio in Hiroshima, designed to inspire calm and creativity.
Using a traditional brush made in Hiroshima, you’ll learn the basics of calligraphy and write your favorite Kanji with step-by-step guidance.

At the end, you’ll turn your writing into real art — a unique souvenir on a T-shirt, fan, or other items to take home as your personal creation.

No experience is needed, and everyone is welcome — couples, families, and solo travelers.
It’s also a perfect setting for photos and memories near the Peace Memorial Park.
