Discover osanpo as more than a walk. In this two-part workshop, participants learn a Japanese practice of attentive wandering, then experience the city in pairs and reflect on what they noticed.

OSANPO is a simple practice of walking without treating the city as a checklist. This workshop invites participants to slow down, notice details, follow curiosity, and share a route with another person.
Part one introduces the concept and helps participants choose a partner and route. On the following morning, pairs will meet at ONE FUKUOKA BLDG, set out on their own walks, and regroup at REC Coffee on the sixth floor for reflection and conversation.
The experience is designed for people who want to encounter Fukuoka through attention, chance, and human connection rather than a conventional guided tour.
