Clay has a mysterious power. When you touch the clay, everyone returns to their childhood and plays with all their might. The cool clay warms in the palms of your hands and takes on a shape that fits the person's hand. With your close friends, or sometimes alone... In a hut where the birds' voices fall and a fresh breeze passes through, you can play with the clay at your leisure. Enjoy such a luxurious time. A must-try for sake lovers!

The "Village Revitalization Project" was started after hearing from overseas tourists that they wanted to know more about Japanese culture and would like to participate if they had the opportunity to experience it. Located about an hour from Himeji Castle, it is a precious place that preserves traditional Japanese rural scenery and shrines. In addition, due to the declining birthrate and aging population, the local elementary school is also at risk of closing. This is a form that allows everyone to participate in village revitalization through Japanese cultural experiences, and is different from general tours. Please join the "Village Revitalization Project" and let's create the future together. Thank you. This plan includes lunch. After that, we will move to a different location and experience cultural experiences such as Japanese dance, shamisen, koto, and shakuhachi, although it will change daily. We will then move to a sake brewery where you can tour the brewery and sample sake.
