Although I’m convinced that you can arrive in Takahama<\/strong> without any prior planning and still having a great time, I know that some of us like to have a bit more structure in our travel plans.So here are few suggested locations and activities to help you enjoy your time at Takahama’s beautiful beaches<\/strong>!<\/p>\n
Suggestion 1: Takahama’s Zen Beach, Wakamiya!<\/h2>\n
Wakamiya Beach<\/strong>, one of Takahama’s Zen beaches, located in close proximity to another popular location in Takahama (Meikyodo Cave<\/strong>) is a great place to relax and take in the scenery. This beach is a lot less crowded than\u00a0Wakasa-Wada Beach<\/strong>\u00a0so it’s title of ZEN Beach really makes sense. The beach is also close to a small farming village, if you want to dry off after a swim I’d recommend walking through the street a bit to see what you can find.<\/p>\n

Suggestion 2: A Calligraphy Class with world renowned calligrapher Kaku!<\/h2>\n
One of the highlights of my time in Takahama, was the calligraphy class<\/strong> that I had with the extremely talented calligrapher Kaku. As much as I enjoyed trying and failing to create some decent looking kanji<\/em>, it was even more fun watching a master at work! Kaku is a really kind and passionate teacher and I’m sure you’ll enjoy every moment of your time with this truly skilled artist. Kaku has been practicing calligraphy for over 30 years! And his work can be seen around the world from Tokyo<\/strong> to New York<\/strong>, and all the way to Paris<\/strong>, France. For a really one of a kind experience in the traditional Japanese art of calligraphy<\/strong>, you’ll definitely want to book a class with Kaku.<\/p>\n
