Makers’ Base Tokyo

Makers’ Base Tokyo

This DIY Workshop in Tokyo’s trendy Meguro Ward offers visitors a chance to learn the art of kintsugi under the instruction of a skilled artisan. The concept of kintsugi, repairing broken ceramics with gold lacquer, has grown in popularity in recent years. For some, it is a form of therapy and meditation, a symbolic restoration of something broken in their lives, made beautiful by highlighting the flaw rather than hiding it. For others, it’s simply a way to enjoy a traditional Japanese craft that has been practiced for nearly 500 years.

Nakaminato Fish Market

Nakaminato Fish Market

One of Japan’s most intriguing and popular fish markets is well worth visiting when in Ibaraki Prefecture. Situated along the waterfront of Ibaraki Prefecture's eastern coast in Minato-honcho, Nakaminato Fish Market reflects Japan's rich maritime heritage. Rivaling Tokyo's famed Tsukiji Fish Market in both size and the abundance of fresh catches, Nakaminato offers a truly local experience without the overwhelming crowds.
