    Kochi Agawa-gun Inocho 3811
    A gallery and shop located a five-minute walk from Ino Station on the JR Dosan Line. They produce and sell Ino-cho made Ganpishi (Tosa washi paper) and papier-mache dolls made with Tosa plaster. The products are on display in a quaint building built in the Taisho period. Using a paper wholesaler, the shop has a nostalgic, retro atmosphere. They make their zodiac inspired papier-mache every year; the familiar designs were also used on the Japan Post's zodiac stamps. Exhibits of photographs, woodblock prints, and softly hued papier-mache are on display in their earthen floored gallery.

Kochi Areas

The largest of Shikoku’s prefectures, Kochi is endowed with some of the island’s most exceptional sand beaches lining the Pacific Ocean, which narrows into the Shimanto-gawa, a huge river that stretches 196 kilometers into the prefecture, passing verdant mountains and hosting countless riverside activities. Whether you’re a pilgrim or not, Kochi’s 16 Buddhist temples that make up one leg of the Shikoku Pilgrimage are worth a visit, particularly Chikurin-ji for its five-tier pagoda.
