What makes this activity special is the use of 'onsen' (hot spring) water direct from Beppu's water sources, in order to create natural colour variations that cannot be found elsewhere. Far more than just about dyeing fabric, the experience offers a chance to discover Beppu’s rich hot spring culture through colour and imagination.
Unlike typical craft workshops, this is deeply connected to the land and traditions of Beppu, making for meaningful memories to take home with you. Whether you're travelling solo, with friends or with family, this activity offers a peaceful and personal way to connect with a truly special aspect of Japanese culture.

Are you ready to turn your hobbies into a business?
Looking for something creative but also 'quintessentially Beppu'? In this fabric-dyeing workshop held in Japan’s most famous hot spring town, you'll use local 'onsen' (hot spring) water to dye fabric, creating a beautiful, one-of-a-kind pattern to take home with you. Through the unique process, you'll witness how one colour becomes transformed into various others via natural chemical reactions caused by the mineral content of Beppu's spring water.
Guided by a local instructor, fabric tea towels will be provided, however participants are welcome to bring their own fabric items to dye if they prefer to do so. This is an activity that's simple, relaxing, and suitable for both adults and child...
