Tsuboya-yaki Yachimun Dojo Ikutouen
Make your one and only yachimun in the world at a pottery with a history of about 300 years.
This is a pottery experience facility operated by Ikuto-en, which has been making yachimun (pottery) called Tsuboya-yaki for about 300 years. The facility offers a variety of hands-on experience menus that can be enjoyed by small children and even in a short period of time, with the hope that visitors can learn about the techniques and culture of Tsuboya-yaki through enjoyment.
The "Shisa Making" is popular among first-time yachimun makers and families with small children. It takes 60 to 90 minutes to make a Shisa, a traditional guardian deity of Okinawa, out of pottery. Other popular activities include pottery making using a potter's wheel, hand-building using a tara (a kind of iron), and painting with traditional glazes to create your favorite patterns.
