An original bronze statue factory and an original foundry are located on the northwest side of Sugo Shrine. Founded during the Gyeong'an era (1648-1651), it inherits the tradition of granting a letter of edict from the Imperial Court. In the past, castings were so popular here that they were called the founder Tsuji, and many craftsmen lived there. Starting with pots and kettles, he made many cannons at the end of the Tokugawa period and many bells in the Meiji era, and in the end he mainly made bronze statues, and now also makes a variety of accessories that can be used as interior goods and souvenirs. When I showed you inside the factory, the prototypes for the statues were lined up narrowly. Buddha statues, celebrities, animal types, Ryoma Sakamoto and the Akiyama Brothers of the Cloud on the Hill, both of which are the hot topics of the day, local greats such as Okubo Takanojo who advocated Seto Ohashi, former Prime Minister Masayoshi Ohira, and Kobo Daishi I was able to continue making. On the shelves at the storefront, there are small items shining with techniques such as "Kanei Treasure" inspired by Kanonji's sand painting, rabbit figurines inspired by the zodiac signs, and lovely beckoning cats. Here, all processes such as prototype, casting and coloring can be performed consistently, so we can respond to any orders. The original copper sculpture factory and the original foundry are one of the few art foundries in Japan that convey valuable skills.

From "Chacha", take prefectural road No. 5 toward Saita and turn left at the Nagase intersection where it crosses with National Route 377. There is "Onishi Pattern Works" along the national road near the table mark factory. In the old farming work, everything was done manually. I worked in fields with plows, hoees, and local locals such as jawren and Tonga. It is this factory that produces the "pattern" of the tree. In addition, they make pestle for making rice cakes, drums and gongs for festivals, sticks for sticks, and sticks that are indispensable for Sanuki udon. Also, there are many orders for thick rolling pins for soba noodles. Recently, imports from China are overwhelmingly large, but Onishi-san's products, which are carefully made by hand, have different tastes and lids. First of all, we use only domestically produced oak or muk trees. It is completely different from external materials in terms of stickiness, so it is hard and firm, so it will hardly bend or crack later. For example, in the case of a rolling pin, it is not possible to make a uniform dough that bends, and it is not possible to beat delicious noodles. That's where Onishi-san's rolling pin, which can't bend, was pulled. Rolling pin is made by naturally drying domestically produced oak squares over a year. It is steamed to correct the bend and carefully cut by hand. Finished with paper twice. I thought this was a difficult process, but around the time of its founding in 2, it was a time when wood was carved in Kanna. The effort was even more difficult. There are also orders to use thin udon noodles for health exercises. It is a rolling pin of two birds with one stone.

Above Michi-no-Eki, there is Kannoyu, which is very popular with neighbors. The quality of the spring is high in sodium and it is also called "Shiragin-no-yu", and you can enjoy the panorama of Asan Mountains from the bathroom. It is said to be a place where vitality and tenderness are gathered by feng shui, and a sculpture "Nushi" by Shiro Hayami is placed like a guardian deity in the courtyard. After taking a bath, there is also a dining room with plenty of side dishes using local vegetables. There are also saloons, so banquets and dinners from small to large groups are possible. At Yunotanso just below, you can use it for accommodation, training, meetings, etc. by reservation.

When you head to Kotosquare again on National Route 32, you will see a direct sale of "Sanuki Canned" on your right. Sanuki Canning Co., Ltd. started processing bamboo shoots in 4. Sanuki Canning Co., Ltd. was established in 27. Currently, in addition to the headquarters factory in Saita, there are also factories in Mino, Zentsuji and Akita prefectures. Currently, we sell many canned fruits such as tangerines, apples, peaches, chestnuts, figs, loquats, and pears, as well as canned candies such as strawberry jam, sweet corn, black beans, cooked rice and side dishes. In rare cases, there are also canned bread and inari sushi, but most of them are exported to the United States. The first thing I noticed at the direct sales store was bottling “nameko mushrooms”. If you put the sweet sweet nameko mushroom on hot rice, it will be more exquisite than egg over rice. Also recommended in winter is germinated brown rice amazake. Fermented foods that have attracted attention recently. Because the sprouted brown rice is used in the amazake, it seems to be more and more energetic. And "grape" is also recommended for Osseti cuisine. Among the black beans, even larger ones are glossy. In addition, there were also canned red crimson oranges specially produced by Kagawa and Beni Ohara. At the direct sales shop, there are also good deals and you can make reasonable shopping. Because it is canned and bottled, it was a "Saiki Canned" direct sales place where you would want to stock up. Please use it for disaster prevention and gifts!
