Visit Wakayama

At the "Asserina Workshop" located in the satoyama of Kimino-cho, Wakayama Prefecture, this is a craft program where you can experience the traditional Japanese bookbinding technique "Japanese binding".

Japanese binding is a bookbinding method that has been used in Japan for a long time, and it is a technique of making books by binding paper with thread. During the Edo period, it was widely used in books and ledgers, supporting Japanese publishing culture.
In the experience, you will use Japanese paper to create your own original notebook. By choosing Japanese paper for the cover and carefully binding it with thread, you can create a one-of-a-kind Japanese bound book.
