Explore the Art of Bonsai & Pottery
The word Bonsai (盆栽) means "planted in a container", referring to the practice of cultivating miniature trees through careful pruning and shaping. Alongside the bonsai displays, visitors can admire a variety of handcrafted pottery, each piece reflecting the skill and creativity of local artists.
Guests will also have the opportunity to attend live demonstrations, lectures, and exhibits that provide insight into bonsai care, suiseki (the art of stone appreciation), and pottery-making techniques. Whether you are familiar with these art forms or new to them, this exhibit offers a chance to learn and appreciate their history and craftsmanship in a relaxing atmosphere.
