Samurai Fencing Geisha Dance and Mito Kairakuen Garden

Tobu-kan was established in 1874 as a training hall for Japanese Fencing specialized in Hokushin Itto-ryu Swordsmanship. It's built in a traditional architectural style. The Japanese Fencing Masters will explain about Tobu-kan, demonstrate patterns of Hokushin Itto-ryu Swordsmanship, and give a lesson to you.

Mito Geisha's Dance Show will attract you at a Japanese Restaurant "Ban-tei" located in Daiiku-machi, Mito. A set of Grilled Eel toped on rice will be served for lunch. If you wish, Tempura lunch is also available instead of Grilled Eel. Please let us know your meal preference when you book.

Kairakuen Garden is one of the most famous garden in Japan. It was created in 1842 by the load of the Mito domain, Tokugawa Nariaki. It was designed not only for the feudal lord, but also for the public to enjoy. From mid February to mid March, "Mito Plum Blossoms Festival" is held. The scenery of 3,000 plus trees in full bloom must fascinate you in that period. As a special offer, a local food or drink, such as a bowl of anglerfish soup or a cup of "Saza Coffee", will be served there.
