Origami
It is hard to say when origami started, but some think that it started soon after paper was invented. In China and Japan, it was used as a part of spiritual life. It became an art form in the 20th century, due to the master Akira Yoshizawa who figured out a way to write the directions down.
Origami is enjoyed by people all over the world.
