This place hits differently than your typical museum visit. The highlight? Meeting the master himself who generously crafted multiple pieces for us - pieces that would normally come with a hefty price tag. There's something mesmerizing about watching a true master at work, transforming simple paper into art right before your eyes.

Don't make the rookie mistake of staying on just one floor though. Make sure you explore every level, especially the one where they demonstrate paper coloring. It's one thing to see finished origami pieces, but watching the entire process, from paper dyeing to the final fold, gives you a whole new appreciation for the art.

This place is a solid 10/10 - not just because it's fascinating, but because it offers that rare, authentic connection with a traditional Japanese art form. The kind of experience where you walk away feeling like you've seen something really special.
