Awa Natural Indigo Dyeing Yamauchi Udatsu Workshop in Mima City's Udatsu Townscape is an authentic workshop where you can experience the charm of "JAPAN BLUE," a traditional color Tokushima is proud to show the world. Here, they preserve the traditional technique called "Natural Lye Fermentation Vatting" from the Edo period, using no chemicals. In the indigo dyeing experience, which beginners can easily join, you can dye items like handkerchiefs or T-shirts yourself, and the moment the tie-dye patterns emerge in blue is moving. Within the history-rich Udatsu Townscape, you can feel the mysterious color changes created by a craftsman's passion and plant life force. Your own world-unique indigo dyed work will become the best memento of visiting Tokushima.
