They have old machines and some textiles on display inside, but I couldn't really understand the explanations. Kiryu textiles are pretty pricey, but it seems like they're not as famous as Nishijin textiles.

You can see all kinds of different wisteria flowers in various colors, and there's a light floral scent in the air. Besides wisteria, there are other flowers too. Even though I visited near the end of the blooming season, I was still really impressed and moved.

You can swallow it directly, and the small packaging makes it super easy to carry around. I really like the peach flavor.
