Feel the summer sounds of Echizen ware, a Fukui craft, 4,000 Riiin...!

Fukui

Thank you for always reading the Azin blog.
This time, Takeshita from Azinn Fukui will be in charge!

Before I knew it, it was already late June.
The rainy season has just begun in the Hokuriku region, where Fukui is located.

Until yesterday, it seemed like the temperature was over 30 degrees Celsius, but it seems that the rainy season front has returned and it's been raining every day since today.

"It's nice to see the hydrangeas blooming beautifully, but it doesn't lift my spirits."

"I'm looking forward to the summer events after the rainy season ends."

Aren't there many people like that?

Well, what I would like to introduce to you today is an event where you can enjoy the sights and sounds during and after the rainy season.

Echizen ware "Tofurin" 4,000 tones

This is an event held in Echizen Town and Echizen Pottery Village.
This is the one I introduced four years ago.【Fukui】Echizen ware "Tofurin"Do you remember that article?

Yes, you can enjoy Okesa Persimmons in the form of

At this time2000 individualIt was a ceramic ware.

Looking at the design of each wind chime, 2000 pieces seems like a lot, but

The number of individuals has been increasing year by year, and this year4000個!

This is double the number of attendees compared to the event four years ago and is on track to be the largest ever.

With all this, it's not only photogenic,
I'm sure you'll find your favorite ceramic porcelain tin!
(By the way, the pottery lanterns at the venue can be purchased for 1,500 yen each. They make a great souvenir from Fukui.)

As usual, I actually went there this time too, so here is the photo corner.

Tinkle...

A thousand reeeeeeen...

It's sad that I can't share the sound with you, but this year's ceramic bells were beautiful.

Come and experience the quality of the sound for yourself.

Personally, I think the wind chimes that you see on rainy days, which are unique to the rainy season, also make beautiful pictures.

There are also plans to hold a photo contest, Night Tofuurin, Yukata Day, and more.

For details, please see “Notices from the Career Support Office” onOfficial website of the Pottery VillagePlease take a look.

I would also like to visit again on the day of the Night Tofurin event.

People who go on tours by motorcycle or bicycle.
For those who want to go for a drive in their car.

However, for those who choose to walk, please be safe on the journey.

Please enjoy Fukui's nature as well! (^^)/
