Discover the ancient art of Japanese knife-making in Sakai City on a walking tour that includes local sweets, the Sakai City Craft Museum, and a visit to the Yamawaki Hamono Company, where you can watch blades transform into handmade cooking knives and learn traditional sharpening techniques.
Sakai is very famous for traditional Japanese sweets, especially those to eat with Japanese tea. After we get off the tramway, we first stop at a traditional sweet shop and relax. One sweet of your choice included per guest.
This local museum was specifically made to introduce everything that makes Sakai city special, such as handmade crafts, Bicycle, as the brand "Shimano" was first created in Sakai and local products: Sweets, Sake and Craft Beer, and more.
This is probably the reason why you will join our Walking Tour in Sakai. Visit a traditional Japanese Knife Factory with over 100 years of family history.
