At Morioka Handmade Village, a group of first-class craftsmen continues to create authentic products. You can see the production process with your own eyes. In addition, you can sometimes listen to various stories from the craftsmen and purchase items that suit you, and you can also actually receive instructions from the craftsmen and have a "hands-on experience" yourself. We, the people who work at Morioka Handmade Village, believe that this is a great opportunity to give back to everyone who visits.
