Description complète

Une piece japonaise de cinq yens a un trou au milieu, ce qui explique sa presence dans les offrandes de temple, le mot qui la designe, go-en, est un homophone de la bonne fortune et du lien. Elle a aussi exactement la forme qu'il faut pour devenir une bague, et c'est tout l'objet de cette heure.

Le processus est vraiment pratique. Vous partez d'une vraie piece, et en travaillant le metal vers l'exterieur depuis le trou central et en le martelant sur un mandrin, le disque plat devient progressivement un anneau. Cela parait improbable jusqu'a ce que vous le voyiez se faire. Les artisans gerent les parties qui exigent une vraie competence et une enclume adaptee, puis vous la rendent entre les etapes, si bien que ce que vous emportez est quelque chose que vous avez visiblement fabrique plutot que regarde se faire.

Le groupe est limite a cinq personnes, le plus petit de tous les ateliers que nous listons a Tokyo, ce qui fait que l'heure ressemble davantage a une lecon avec un artisan qu'a un cours. L'instruction se fait en anglais. Les outils et materiaux sont tous fournis, et aucune experience n'est attendue ; la plupart des gens arrivent n'ayant jamais tenu un marteau de bijoutier.

Vous pouvez faire une bague ou un porte-bonheur selon ce que vous voulez obtenir au final. Dans tous les cas, vous partez en le portant, ce qui fait tout l'interet : c'est un souvenir avec une histoire qui tient dans une poche et qui vous a coute une heure plutot qu'un shopping.

L'atelier se trouve a Nishi-Asakusa, a quelques rues de Senso-ji et de l'allee commercante de Nakamise, ce qui l'integre naturellement a une matinee a Asakusa. La taille se determine le jour meme, donc rien n'a besoin d'etre decide a l'avance.

3 of us carried out the ring making activity. What an amazing experience. The staff were super friendly and very helpful. Shugo supported us throughout the ring making process. They were excellent. You make the ring from start to finish under their guidance. A really lovely and memorable experience, with an added bonus of having beautiful keepsake ring and pendant to take home.

We really enjoyed this experience. We chose this ring workshop because we needed quite large ring sizes, and this was the only one we could find with no ring size limit — a huge relief. The little pendant from the coin centre was an added bonus. Our guides, Kazu and Mao, were funny, welcoming, and incredibly helpful throughout. They made the whole experience feel relaxed and memorable for us. A wonderful activity, especially if you need flexibility with ring sizing and want guides who bring great energy.

It was a really great experience. The two guides were very friendly and explained a lot. I was the only customer at that time so I had a private lesson. You can chose from different coins and size. And you get to do all the steps from the coin to your ring and necklace. I can highly recommend this activity.

My son and I both really enjoyed doing this together! It took us to another different part of Tokyo and gave us a great experience and we came away with two beautiful rings that we love!

Amazing! Kazu was an awesome guy with a great personality and patient and thorough with us. We made beautiful keepsakes from our trip and my kids had a blast seeing the process and being hands on. Highly recommend for those who want the unique experience they’ll remember for a lifetime.

We loved our experience making our rings! It was such a fun and unique activity, and we're so happy with how our rings turned out! Our guide was super friendly, patient, and really helpful throughout the whole process. They explained each step clearly, made sure we were comfortable, and taught us so much along the way. It was so rewarding getting to make the rings ourselves and seeing them come together from start to finish. We'd definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking for something a little different and memorable! 😊

Late March to early April for cherry blossom, or late October to early December for autumn colour and the clearest skies. Contrary to most advice, October is Tokyo's wettest month (234.8 mm), not the June rainy season. Full month-by-month figures are in our best time to visit Tokyo guide.
Get a Suica or Pasmo IC card and budget ¥1,000–¥1,400 a day. Do not buy a JR Pass for a Tokyo-only trip — it costs ¥50,000 and excludes Tokyo Metro and Toei entirely. Note JR East raised Tokyo fares on 14 March 2026, so Metro is now cheaper than JR on several routes. See getting around Tokyo.
Shibuya Sky releases tickets only 14 days ahead at 00:00 JST — it cannot be booked months in advance. teamLab Borderless tickets drop at 12:00 JST on the 1st of each month. Our 3-day Tokyo itinerary lists every booking deadline.
Yes — a Japanese licence or an International Driving Permit issued under the 1949 Geneva Convention. 1968 Vienna Convention permits are not valid in Japan. Licences from Switzerland, Germany, France, Belgium, Monaco and Taiwan need an official JAF translation instead. Arrange it before you fly; see the Tokyo go-kart guide.
Yes — the highway bus from Busta Shinjuku to Kawaguchiko takes about 1h 45m for ¥2,200. But manage expectations: Fuji is visible on 84% of December mornings and only 23% of July mornings, and cloud builds through the day, so go early. Details in our Mount Fuji day trip guide.
Edomae sushi (the Tokyo Bay style, where curing began as a workaround for having no refrigeration), monjayaki — a runny griddle dish unique to Tokyo with 80+ specialists on Tsukishima's Monja Street — and soba. Also worth knowing: Tsukiji Outer Market never closed; only the wholesale auction moved to Toyosu. See the Tokyo food guide.
The crossing itself takes about ninety seconds. What makes it worth an evening is one street back — Nonbei Yokocho, a lantern-lit alley of tiny bars a minute away that almost nobody who photographs the scramble walks into. Note street drinking is banned in the area 18:00–05:00 year-round, though the ordinance carries no fine. See the Shibuya Crossing guide.
Yes, some. Japan's cashless ratio reached 58% in 2025, so over 40% of payments are still cash — and card refusal is most likely at small independent izakaya, ramen ticket machines and market stalls. Tipping is not expected anywhere.
