Workshop Haseto

Located close to Kamakura’s Great Buddha, Haseto offers a variety of pottery classes, including hand moulding and using an electric potter’s wheel. For an authentic Kamakura souvenir, opt for the workshop in which you learn to craft little Buddha statues. It’s perfect for beginners, as you only need to add small parts and facial expressions to a pre-made Buddha-shaped piece of clay. We recommend making a reservation online before dropping by. The experience takes about 60 to 90 minutes.
