From Crafting to Tasting: Dive Into the 4th “GRAPHY GARAGE” Activities
“GRAPHY GARAGE” Special Website
The Warmth and Nostalgia of Christmas in Yanesen
The “GRAPHY GARAGE” is an event that connects HOTEL GRAPHY NEZU with the local community, which was also well-received during its previous spring 2025 iteration. For this 4th event, the theme will be “Christmas,” marking its first time being held in winter.
While maintaining the warm, downtown atmosphere of Yanesen, the aim is to create a festive and family-friendly event, much like a Christmas market overseas. Hotel guest rooms will be transformed into spaces decorated by select shops, general stores, and vintage clothing stores from the Yanesen area, showcasing their carefully curated products.
On the day of the event, you will find items perfect for Christmas gifts, such as general goods, accessories, and vintage clothing. Furthermore, food popular in Germany, the home of Christmas markets, will be enjoyed with bread and wine, with some supervision provided by the chef of “Cise.” “uncle” (wine) and “sols coffee” (coffee) will also offer original, limited-edition Christmas drinks.
