    Nigata Pref. Murakamishi Sakanamachi 8-4
    Machiya Gallery Yamakichi is a gallery housed within one of the old townhouses, or machiya, which has been designated as one of the nation’s Registered Tangible Cultural Properties. The building still retains the charm of the Edo period with its stylish black tiles and window grills. The gallery mainly handles pieces from local craftsmen and handicrafts made by traditional craftsmen with quite a range on offer such as salted salmon patchwork, and Uetsu shinafu (a kind of woven textile). Inside the building you can see the hearth and living room and also you can see furnishings like the old wooden panels and sliding doors which were fashionable at the time. The nearest station is Murakami Station.

    古民家を改造したような造りの古い建物で中は ギャラリーや民芸品を売る雑貨屋さんでした。内部は撮影禁止のようです。 建物に特徴があり雰囲気があります

    Niigata Niigata-shi Chuo-ku Kamiokawamaedori 10 Bancho 1864
    An art gallery standing halfway between Niigata City Art Museum and the Niigata Bandaijima Art Museum. The gallery was establishment with the aim of providing opportunities to come in contact with fine art, and to contribute to the creation of an environment in which the appreciation of art is part of the cultural activities enjoyed by local residents. Operating out of a remodeled townhouse dating to the Taisho period, the gallery’s exhibition room is a space where visitors can experience a variety of quality works of art. The gallery holds a variety of exhibitions each month, providing opportunities for incorporating art into the private spaces of the home and office. One of the gallery’s charms is that many of its featured artists personally visit the facility, enabling visitors to experience their works of art and worldview on an even deeper level.

    新潟駅からは、信濃川を渡り、徒歩で30分程度で到着できます。外観は日本建築で大正時代の古民家をリノベーションが施されています。そして館内は画廊です。訪問した時は、“華雪書展”の展示でした。

    Nigata Pref. Tsubameshi Yoshidahigashisakaechou 55-18

    工場見学に訪れました。非常に職人の挨拶がよく、気持ちが良いし、それぞれの作業場所には案内看板が立っているので、予備知識がなくても楽しめる。 前日までに依頼すれば、無料のガイド付きツアーも頼めるそうです。 ショップには、たくさんの包丁があって、圧倒されます。 高価なものもありますが、安いものもあります。コストパフォーマンスが良い印象を受けました。
