EDO EXPERIENCES

Experience of various professions from the Edo period can help children on the way to becoming adults.
After choosing from 3 professions (Shinsen-gumi warrior, ninja, or torikata police constable), the children undertake professional training and then head out into the town. Strolling around the town in costume, children can lose themselves in the dream of becoming heroes of the old Edo period. See your children gain a different, more serious look in their eyes.

EDO EXPERIENCES

During the Experience Edo: Work Experience event, participating children wander all over old Edo town dressed as Shinsen-gumi warriors, ninjas, or torikata police constables, gaining some idea of the experience of these respective jobs.

Красильня Айя

During the Edo period, dyeing using indigo (kon in Japanese) was widely practiced. Visitors can experience this process for themselves here.
Participants draw whatever design they like on a white handkerchief, and then dye these patterns into the fabric using vivid indigo dyes. After washing, you just have to wait for them to dry. Create your own memories of Nikko Edomura!

Переодевания

Here is where you can turn into a real Edo citizen. The role you instinctively select from the various choices (samurai, ninja, Shinsen-gumi, merchant, Oiran, town maiden) may indicate who you were in a previous life! Once you put on the costumes and wigs, your heart and soul will travel to Edo. And don't hesitate to start up a conversation with the fellow Edo citizens you encounter in the streets. It could be the beginning of a fun new tale of Edo.
