Kongo-Gumi workshop Tour and Experience
Last update
The Kongo Gumi Processing Center Tour specially opens the processing center to the public. Until recently, the center was generally limited to certain stakeholders. The tour starts with an introduction to Kongo Gumi, its workshop, Dream Workshop (showroom), and a full-scale modeling area. Afterward, you'll watch a master carpenter's plane shaving demonstration and then experience assembling a 1/3 scale model of the first story of a five-story pagoda.
