Japanese culture experience through flower arrangement :JTCA Inbound Monitoring Tour
In the fall of 2023, the JTCA Japanese Traditional Culture Hospitality Association held a monitoring tour to entertain foreign visitors to Japan with Japanese cultural experiences. This is the flower arrangement experience at the Shonan Crystal Hotel banquet.
Flower arrangement has been passed down through generations based on ancient etiquette and influenced by the Japanese lifestyle and historical background. ``If you understand the basics of spatial harmony, you can have more freedom in flower arranging,'' says instructor Ms.Risho Seo. Flower arranging may have an image of being difficult to enter, but once you master the basics, anyone can easily enjoy it at home or anywhere. As Ms. Seo said, ``Let's talk to the flowers, they will be happy. '' As Ms. All the participants were able to freely communicate with the flowers. It is said that flowers have a face. It is also important to find the face of the flower and balance it so that the face is facing forward. Every piece of work created by participants freely is unique. Mini flower arrangements made at the venue can be taken home as souvenirs. By the time the work was completed, both men and women were smiling kindly and had become one with the flowers.
