10:00 Hasami Town Ceramics Park (Kurawan Pottery Museum, World Kiln Plaza)

Hasami ware has become popular in recent years for its modern designs and colors. Kurawan Museum exhibits historical materials about Hasami ware, as well as pottery from 35 local kilns, trading companies, and traditional craftsmen. It's also fun to find your favorite pottery here and visit the kiln. Why not try making your own one-of-a-kind pottery by taking part in a pottery experience (wheel-throwing, hand-shaping, and painting experience) (reservations required in advance)?
At the World Kiln Plaza on a small hill, 12 rare kilns representing the world have been reproduced, allowing visitors to learn about the history and techniques of kilns around the world. The colorful ceramic wall stretching for 50 meters along the road is a photogenic spot that will have you pointing your camera at it.

After filling your stomach with homemade pizza baked in a converted pottery kiln and local Hasami ware cuisine (reservation required) at "Bunkanoto Shikisha," a community center that has been repurposed from a former pottery factory, you can take a leisurely stroll around the area, visiting the pottery studios.
