Tokoname-shi Ceramic Hall

3.5

Tokoname City in Aichi Prefecture is known as one of the “Six Old Kilns of Japan,” and it is the birthplace of Tokoname ware. The Tokoname City Ceramic Hall, located between Tokoname Station and the Tokoname Interchange, produces and sells Tokoname ware. You can purchase teacups, rice bowls, vases, and ornaments. The facility itself is a tourist location and the first stop on the “pottery trail.” There’s a parking lot, rest area, bathroom, and other amenities, making it a kind of base for Tokoname tourism.

常滑焼の工房を巡る、やきもの散歩道。その出発点になっている施設です。館内には常滑焼の商品が並んでいて、購入もできます。

常滑焼観光のランドマーク、駐車場もあり情報収集からトイレ休憩まで気楽に寄ることができます。焼き物も売っておりますが、やきもの散歩道を回ってお店を楽しみながら買い物が良いでしょう。
