Tong CF I am a Singaporean in Kyoto Japan

​WASABI Creation began as a volunteer group organizing countless number of international events in Kansai for both the Japanese and the international communities. Many of these events achieved such a high level of organization and quality that it’s hard to believe they were truly created by a group of volunteers.​  We have a team of multi-cultural, multi-lingual Japanese staffs, foreign staffs, and many others in between. Our team understands your business, Japanese culture, and appreciates the essence of your products, services and philosophy. Through creating these innovative events, we are able to present all of these qualities and beauties to potential clients and partners from the prospect of the foreigners eyes, leaving them with a better understanding, appreciation, and lasting impression to eventually achieve your company’s goal.

Kyoto Kitayama Cedar~ Harvesting Workshop The Kitayama Mountains north of Kyoto city produce the cedar, called ‘Kitayama Sugi’ used to build traditional Japanese ‘sukiya’ architecture. It has a 600 year history, making it the oldest forestry culture in the world. In addition to being unique and producing exquisite wood, Kitayama Forestry is very environmentally friendly.  This cultural heritage has largely been lost as Japan has adopted mass produced housing, leaving Kitayama and other traditional Japanese forestry products to fall into disuse. Fortunately, this has begun to change in recent years as some Japanese rediscover their own culture, and export opportunities have arisen. ​ Together with the company, we organized a visit to the cedar plantation forest to see how cedar trees are being harvested and processed, and also learn about the history and characteristics of "Kitayama Sugi", the cedar trees of Kyoto.
