Japanese Indigo Blue Dye Studio chizu blue was started by women in Chizu Town based on an idea: dyeing that will not pollute Tottori’s water resources.

Here at chizu blue, you can try your hand at dyeing a handkerchief or a scarf.

Chizushuku was a post town along the Chizu Orai, a major road used when traveling to the capital during the feudal era.

This made it a very important location, and there were teahouses, a magistrate’s office, and notice boards here. Reminders of when the area flourished as a post town can still be seen in the town house buildings and road signs that remain.

Talmary’s bread only uses naturally cultured bacteria when it leavens dough with yeast. Also, the craft beer available at the café on the grounds only uses local natural spring water, and they brew their beer with the same natural bacteria. Why not try some bread and beer that is made using bacteria found in the wild?
