Japan Trip Series
Part 3: Nagasaki

Have you ever heard of Nagasaki’s “Tako” Kites? 🪁

They have a long history that started back when Dutch traders brought along European-style kites and they were given a local twist.
Since then, tako kites have been made in Nagasaki and are seen as a symbol of the city’s rich cultural heritage.
They can be as simple as a square, and as complex as a large 3D dragon! 🐉

When visiting Nagasaki, you can participate in a kite making experience like this one, learning from one of the last masters still practicing the craft.
You can make your own kite with a symbol of your choosing, and then spend some time in childlike wonder flying it outside!

Let’s go fly a kite!
