There are many shops on the main street of Mashiko (Jyonaizaka street) that sell Mashiko pottery, so make sure to walk around the center of town when you are there. Also, there is a weekend morning market that sells small items at discounted prices as well as the two large pottery fairs a year that attracts tens of thousands of shoppers from Japan and overseas.(Currently the weekend market and pottery fairs are on hold due to COVID)
After learning about Mashiko pottery and making your own, it’s now time to taste the award winning local sake with sake cups made by local Mashiko potters. Head over to Tonoike sake brewery to take an English tour of the brewery and taste their amazing sake.
