Experience Hall / Accommodation Experience (Training) Facility

3.0

"A cultural experience facility operating out of a remodeled building once used as a training hall for geisha located in the Katayamazu Onsen hot spring village. Here you can try your hand at making a traditional Japanese dyed textile. A type of tie-dying known as Akiko-zome, the name is derived from a poem by Akiko Yosano, who visited Katayamazu Onsen long ago. The poem mentions the elegant, light purple textiles decorated with patterns in a technique called ""dorozome"" (mud dying)- ""The wind rises / A wave of light purple moves / Katayamazu in the early spring."" Participants can dye a handkerchief or scarf with their own original design."

片山津温泉インフォメーションセンターの向いに

Reviewed : 2019.11.07

１９２０年に建てられた片山津温泉の芸妓の練習の場だった建物です。べんがら格子が美しく大正ロマンが感じられる施設です。館内では、「豆腐づくり体験」や「晶子染め体験」や「水引体験」ができます。現在、寄席やイベントブ会場として使われたりしているそうです。芸妓さんの源氏名が入った稲荷提灯や芸妓札などが展示されています。
