    漆器の町、高岡らしいお店です。 お店がある高岡市中央町という地名は電車通りに面した、大福院通りを下りたところ辺りに数軒あるだけの小さな町の地名です。 坂下町と片原町の間といったら地元の人ならばすぐにわかるのですが中央町と聞いても、そんな町あったっけ?といわれます。 「くにもと」とお店の名前を言うだけの方がよほど地元ではどこのお店かと通じます。 漆器ですから伝統的な物で目新しさはありません。 でもそ...

Toyama Areas

Toyama is one of the three prefectures that house the Japanese Alps, with its southern and eastern borders comprising one long stretch of mountains, out of which the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route is forged. While traditional crafts fill the northern coastal cities of Toyama and Takaoka, thatched roof houses offer unrivalled views against a backdrop of fantastic scenery at Gokayama in the mountainous area in the south of the prefecture.
