A truly unique experience in Gotokuji! Painting my own lucky Maneki-neko was one of the highlights of my Tokyo trip. The staff were welcoming and helpful, and I left with a one-of-a-kind souvenir. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic cultural experience.
I am happy with the very cute result. I had thought about the finished image of the maneki-neko beforehand, but with the design that I thought about on the spot, I was able to spend a creative and fun time very quickly. I recommend it.
Today is a wonderful experience, just on your birthday, give yourself a special gift. Thank you for hosting this event at the Chiang Shui Cafe in Chiang Mai, Taiwan☺️
Thank you for organizing such a fun event, it was a pleasure to have the opportunity to sign up together with friends and draw a cat together. Thank you for the teachers' long way to come and prepare so rich, the teachers in the activities are also kind guidance and assistance. This painting is the right-handed cat, this size is a relatively good painting for beginners, and in time just finished. I liked my own work and also liked this activity. The activity time relationship painted a cat just fine, but I think the person who likes might like like me to have a pair of cash cats, if the site can add to the purchase of the left-handed cash cats, I will buy.
I discovered this experience while planning a visit to Gotokuji Temple. The temple is known for its simple white lucky cats, but at this workshop, you can paint and decorate your very own original Maneki-neko. This experience is enjoyable for all ages, from children to adults. Designing and painting your own cat was incredibly fun, and it made for the best souvenir from my trip to Japan. The staff were very kind and helpful, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Tokyo!
I was able to relax and experience painting. I really enjoyed painting surrounded by beautiful maneki-neko.
Teacher very carefully taught a lot of colorful little steps, can very quickly get started, communication no problems, very great experience, happy ❤️
Thanks to the teacher for bringing a lovely cat, let us have the opportunity to experience our own painting, is a very difficult experience!
Usually I like fitting clay But all done very small This is the first time I painted such a big one Hand shaking bracelets while on the color
It is very enjoyable and easy to complete with a sense of accomplishment. The experience of the process is comfortable. Hopefully there will still be a chance to experience again to see and take another companion to try
