Kimono & Japanese Cultural Experiences in Hiroshima

Aim, Toss, and Discover the Beauty of Japanese Elegance

Step into the refined world of old Japan with Tosenkyo, a traditional game once enjoyed by aristocrats and geisha.
Using a folding fan, you aim at a target and score points based on how it falls—each result has a poetic name inspired by classical literature.
This experience is more than just a game.
It’s a moment to enjoy elegance, focus, and a touch of playful competition.
No experience needed—simple rules make it easy for anyone to join and have fun.
