About this spot
Nestled in the beautiful scenery of the clear Niyodo River, Tosa Washi Craft Village Kuraudo is a leisure complex that captures the best of Kochi. The highlight is undoubtedly the hands-on papermaking experience using Tosa washi, a traditional craft with more than 1,000 years of history. Guided by a craftsman, you can make your own original postcards or shikishi art boards, a perfect way to create travel memories. The workshop also offers weaving experiences, so you can fully enjoy the pleasure of making things by hand. For those who want to stay active, canoeing and rafting on the crystal-clear "Niyodo Blue" water are also popular. After a day of fun, refresh yourself in the herbal open-air bath on site. There is also a French restaurant that makes the most of local seasonal ingredients, making this a great spot for family trips, girls' getaways, or a relaxing holiday on your own. Enjoy a moment of healing among the historic washi culture and rich nature.
