  • 手袋アートを自由見学

    手袋の街ならではの施設で、昭和の手袋工場をリニューアルして手袋アートを展示しています。入館料は無料で、自由に見学できます。今まで見たことのない異様な空間でした。

    小学校の遠足で徳島から屋島に行ったとき、ガイドさんが「このあたりは手袋工場が日本一」と言われたのをかすかに覚えています。レトロな木造の工場ー10数年前までは使用されていたそうですが、中に入ると、懐かしい昔のミシンがならんでいました。販売もあり、短時間でしかも無料で見ることができました。
  • 일본 수제 장갑 조합

    사누키시로토리역에서 도보로 20분 정도 걸린 듯.시대별 장갑 전시부터 만드는 도구까지 처음 봐서 신기.갤러리 옆에 아울렛 매장은 사진 촬영 금지. 장갑 종류도 다양하고 저렴하게 구매 가능.
