Beyond just playing GO
At Niigata Igo Plus, we spice up the traditional Go experience with gentle music, a relaxed atmosphere, and a touch of everyday luxury.
Take a book from our reading shelf, sip your favorite drink, and let yourself unwind. Our space is also designed to jazz up your time with creative activities—educational toys, craft kits, and the calming scent of aroma — because here, these moments matter just as much as the game of Go.
“I’ve never seen a Go salon like this!” “This is exactly the place I was looking for!”
We created a new style of Go salon that inspires these kinds of reactions.
Why not discover your own “IGO Plus favorite moment” with us?
Greetings!
