- Marugame Uchiwa fans began to become popular as souvenirs for pilgrims visiting Konpira Shrine over 400 years ago. A distinctive feature of Marugame Uchiwa fans is that they are made using a single piece of bamboo and go through 47 processes. Currently, they are designated as a national traditional craft and account for 90% of the domestic market share. This is a special experience program where you can learn about the history and experience the five characteristic processes under the guidance of a craftsman. ~Experience Flow~ 10:00 / 13:00 Introduction of the craftsman.
