A small but beautiful museum about "bamboo art"

This small museum shows what can be done with bamboo. Its really beautifully done, with a lot of love for details. And its pretty amazing to see what "bamboo artists" did or do create from this plant.

I participated in a bamboo workshop.

Many works by national treasure-class bamboo craftsmen are on display, and the history of bamboo craftsmen is also on display in an easy-to-understand manner. It seems that workshops are also held regularly in the space on the 2nd floor.
