    This Ryukyu ingido dyeing workshop is located in Motobu Town, Okinawa Prefecture. It sells clothing, shop curtains, tapestries, and other items made with cloth that has been carefully resist-dyed using mud and indigo dye made from dyer's knotweed leaves. Visitors can also casually try ingido dyeing a hand towel or handkerchief. It is even possible to bring and dye your own cotton or hemp T-shirts, blouse, or other items. The workshop's attached cafe serves organic coffee, black tea, and homemade juices, as well as cheesecakes made with seasonal fruit and open sandwiches.

Let go of your image of a busy, ordered Japan and replace it with crystal-clear waters, white sand beaches, and relaxing folk music: You’ve arrived in Okinawa. A world away from the high intensity of Tokyo, Okinawans appear to live a laid-back beach life on this paradisiacal tropical island that lies in the middle of the East China Sea almost 1,000 kilometers south of mainland Japan’s most southern tip. Home to a spattering of islands, prepare yourself to discover underwater caves, star-shaped sand, and an island culture sometimes unrecognizable from mainland Japan.
