See, Learn and Recognize Cultural Properties in Minato City: Workshop on Local Architecture

The ordinary scenery of daily life takes on a completely different profile when one rediscovers cultural assets which you are unaware. Although Minato Ward is home to a variety of valuable outdoor sculptures and architecture, their existence is often forgotten in the course of daily life, and at the same time, the face of the city fades away.

In this tour-style workshop, participants will appreciate the cultural assets scattered throughout the city of Minato Ward by viewing the works with sculpture and architecture specialists, and explore the true nature and charm of an area rich in cultural assets.
