What is Bonsai?
Bonsai is known as a work of “living art” in Japan, and it has been prominent in Japanese culture since long ago. Unlike planting trees in a field, Bonsai trees are delicately cultivated on a tray or bowl where the grower has more control of the size and amount of roots that grow and thus are able to confine the root systems and miniaturize trees.

This tour will be operated in Bonsai museum by professional bonsai artist.

It was a highlight of our trip. We came away with even a greater appreciation for this living art form. Joseph, our guy was charming and passionate and we learned so much. We had no clue of the work involved in this industry.

Had a great afternoon with Kunio Kobayashi and his apprentices. One of them taught me basic bonsai techniques and then guided me through the bonsai museum and served me tea. I saw so many incredible trees there and the whole tour was fantastic.

Our family of four took this hour-long class and it was very informative and enjoyable. We each "wired" junipers and learned how to manipulate them in an artistic way. The teachers were very knowledgeable and patient with us, helping guide us through the class. It was well done.

The property is gorgeous. Densely packed with an incredible assortment of bonsai and suiseki, the place was tranquil and yet overwhelmingly beautiful. We were invited to explore the aesthetically pleasing traditional home as well. I was bummed the master was away but apprentice Joseph was patient and helpful. We learned to wire a small conifer bonsai. The class was just me and my friend. A unique experience that was well worth a trip out of central Tokyo.
