[New Landmark in Kyoto Arashiyama] Explore the Town as a Ninja!? New Experiential Complex Facility 'TAKUMI EXPERIENCE Arashiyama' Grand Opens on April 1st!

Kyoto's Arashiyama is a world-renowned tourist destination. "TAKUMI EXPERIENCE Arashiyama," located in its heart, is a new style of complex facility where visitors can not only "see" the scenery but also "experience," "create," and "taste" Japanese culture firsthand, thereby deeply etching travel memories. From authentic ninja experiences to craft experiences where you can create one-of-a-kind original items, and a relaxing Japanese-style cafe. We offer "extraordinary memories" that will make Arashiyama sightseeing even more special for both domestic and international tourists. ■ An extraordinary experience blending into Arashiyama's townscape: "Authentic Ninja Experience" One of the highlights of our facility is the "Ninja Experience," where you can try out ninja arts such as shuriken (throwing stars) and blowguns. The experience, dressed in authentic ninja attire, feels as if you've stepped into the world of a historical drama. Furthermore, you can stroll through Arashiyama and take photos while wearing the costume. Dedicated staff will provide thorough support, ensuring that beginners and international visitors can enjoy the experience with peace of mind. ■ Craft Experiences to take home "tangible" travel memories We offer "Coin Making Experience" and "Chopstick Making Experience" as ways to create lasting memories. Chopstick Making Experience: You can carve and finish chopsticks, a symbol of Japanese culture, from fragrant natural wood to your liking. The finished product can be taken home on the same day, making it highly recommended for couples creating matching items or families making memories together. Coin Making Experience: Create vintage-inspired original accessories by processing real coins from various countries around the world. ■ Perfect as a sightseeing hub! "Japanese Concept Cafe & Luggage Storage" The facility also includes a "Japanese Concept Cafe" with approximately 40 seats, offering the warmth of wood. We provide photogenic original menus that are not only delicious but also visually enjoyable with ninja-related themes. Additionally, a "Luggage Storage Service" is available for tourists. After enjoying experiences and cafe time, you can leave your heavy luggage and explore Arashiyama lightly, utilizing the facility as a hub for your sightseeing. Ninja Parfait Kiwami (Ultimate) This cafe's signature menu item features crispy shuriken (throwing star) cookies that catch the eye. It's a luxurious layering of Kyoto's unique Japanese ingredients, starting with rich matcha ice cream, followed by warabi mochi and anko (red bean paste). Wanin (Japanese Ninja) Tiramisu A tasteful dish served in a bamboo vessel, symbolizing Arashiyama's iconic bamboo groves. The creamy richness of mascarpone perfectly matches the subtle bitterness of matcha. The surface is decorated with a shuriken pattern using matcha powder, expressing the ninja's "aesthetic of concealment." Bamboo Charcoal Soda A jet-black soda, inspired by ninjas blending into the dark night. Made with edible bamboo charcoal powder, it offers a refreshing taste that quenches thirst, contrary to its impactful appearance. ■ Future Outlook for "TAKUMI EXPERIENCE Arashiyama" This facility is a place where visitors can deeply feel Japanese culture not just by "seeing" tourist spots, but by "experiencing," "creating," and "tasting." We will continue to disseminate Japan's traditions and techniques as attractive experiential content, providing a special, memorable time for all who visit.
