Nagomi Mikawa Handmade Washi Center

Washi (Japanese paper) production began in Nagomi 400 years ago, and by the Meiji era (1868 – 1912) the trade was thriving, with approximately 65% of Kumamoto’s washi coming from the town.
At the Nagomi Mikawa Handmade Washi Center you can experience making washi for yourself.
