Activity

Get to know Oshima Tsumugi, a traditional craft that represents Kagoshima Prefecture

Oshima Tsumugi was traditionally worn as a private kimono by the Shimazu family during the Edo period (1603-1868), and later made to be presented as gifts. Please enjoy the evolved, modern version of Oshima Tsumugi.

Try on a carefully selected Oshima Tsumugi from a long-established weaving company founded in 1930, and enjoy an in-depth explanation of the Oshima Tsumugi craft

This is a unique experience where you can hear insider stories about Oshima Tsumugi from the third-generation weaver who also served as the chairman of the Honba Oshima-Tsumugi Orimono Cooperative Society.

Enjoy the gentle sway of the rickshaw as you take in the twilight cityscape

Experience the gradual transition into nightfall as you explore Tenmonkan, the busiest shopping district in Kagoshima.

Try Kagoshima's signature sweets and shop for local specialties

Discover hidden gems known only to locals—places you won't find in guidebooks.
