Narushima washi paper making experience
Narushima Washi paper has been handed down for over 350 years. It is a simple Japanese paper made by mixing the bark of the paper mulberry with sheets of the Japanese deutzia japonica. Its unique texture, which cannot be found in mass-produced paper, is its charm, and at the Narushima Washi Craft Museum, you can try your hand at making your own original work.
*Advance reservations are required for the washi paper making experience.
