Kiso Hirasawa and Kiso Narai located on the far west of Shiojiri City, Nagano Prefecture. Along the old highway along the Tenryu River, which originates from Lake Suwa, it is quietly facing a narrow and long old road. Although Naraijuku is still a popular old post town, Hirasawa is a village that once flourished as the home of Kijima lacquerware. I usually stay quiet, and most of the lacquer shops facing the old highway do not have business for tourists. Kijima Lacquerware originally used to make lacquerware that is closely attached to everyday life, as a tool of living, or non-concrete everyday life. Unlike expensive and brilliant paints such as Wajima-nuri and Kaga-nuri, they are lacquerware that enriches everyday life as a daily life tool. This Kijima Lacquerware Museum understands the historical background of the former people who aim for a way to art and craft beyond everydayity, while putting up lacquerware as such daily tools and its everydayness and enhancing the craftsmanship It would be a great destination to do. It is a must-see spot for young people grown in plastic products (mostly Made in China). Let's put the feeling of everyday charachara behind, and work on "What is lacquer?" Stores that are open even on a day-to-day basis: You may visit the "Senara Lacquer Store" at the entrance of the Kijima Lacquerware Museum, the "Cicillia" and the "Ishimoto Lacquer Store" in the center of the town. "Chicilian" is a unique high-class lacquer. The "Akira Lacquerware Store" has a good lineup of products. "Ishimoto Lacquerware Store" is an excellent lacquerware store that has restaurants, restaurants and restaurants throughout the country. Finally: Japanese people who are not interested in lacquerware have no culture.
