invite Japanese Lantern workshop at @japanhouseldn 🏮👇🏻
It’s always great to learn something new about the traditional Japanese crafts! This time I attended Edo Tegaki Chōchin workshop and decorated my own traditional Japanese foldable lantern made of washi pare and bamboo ribbing. Our workshop was led by fourth-generation lantern craftsman Murata Kenichirō from Tokyo. The attendees choose a lantern with one of the kanjis written in pencil, plus an apron, googles, paint with brush, gloves etc. How do you like my lantern? It says Dream on it!
The workshop was supported by @tokyotokyooldmeetsnew and JNTO #anna_approves…
📍King Power Mahanakhon Skywalk, the highest observation deck in Thailand
King Power Mahanakhon is a skyscraper opened in 2016 which has a very unusual helix shape (just look at the ice cream in the shape of it). First, you get to a desk with shops and a cafe, and then you can take an elevator/ escalator to an open space on the very top. We booked the tickets well in advance to attend a sunset slot – Bangkok looks absolutely spectacular from this desk! After your visit, you can explore more of the shopping floors of the tower. #purpurpurpur_rooftops
