“Yakatabune” is usually chartered by a group in specific seasons such as cherry blossom viewing , summer , year-end parties , etc…..
and it is difficult for not only foreign visitors to Japan but also Japanese people to book because it will be almost full of reservations.
Promote safety measures by displaying in-boat display of Yakatabune in multiple languages, and improving hospitality for foreign tourists visiting Japan, such as broadcasting an English version of the navigation guidance video and cooking explanations by staff who can speak English to work on.
This is a night cruise that takes you on Yakatabune of the famous Shinagawaura Funadamari, where you can experience the history of Edo, and sees the typical scenery of Tokyo from Tokyo Bay.
Experience the “Kagamiwari” for good luck that has been done for a long time in Japan, and enjoy the kaiseki full course such as freshly fried tempura.
Professional photographers will also be able to take photos with your smartphone or camera, so you can freely post your time on a houseboat taken by a professional on SNS.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
