Kawasaki Daishi Temple Tour with Candy Making

After meeting your guide, you will walk towards Kawasaki Daishi Temple, passing through the Omotesando (main approach) street, which is lined with traditional, old-fashioned shops.

The Nakamise-dori (shopping street) is the busiest path leading to the Main Hall of Kawasaki Daishi Temple. This traditional area is famous for local specialties. You will see Kuzumochi (a soft, sweet rice cake), Daruma dolls, and the famous rhythmic hard candy, Tontoko-ame. You will join a special Tontoko-ame workshop right here, in this traditional area.

Kawasaki Daishi is a very famous Buddhist temple, known for helping people get rid of bad luck and trouble. We will briefly explore this area before heading to the main workshop.

Create your own traditional Tontoko-ame hard candy! You will enjoy making your unique sweet with a cheerful, rhythmic pounding sound!
