[Okinawa] A renovated shop where you can find works by craftsmen active in the northern part of Ogimi Village

A shop renovated from a classroom in a closed elementary school in Ogimi Village [Yamahara Craft Shop (inside the former Kijoka Elementary School)] A small closed elementary school in Yanbaru. Currently, the site of the school has been utilized and reborn as Kijoka Sho School, with various tenants operating it. Yamahara Craft Shop is located inside the shop. The shop mainly sells works by craftspeople active in the northern part of Okinawa Prefecture. There are wonderful works such as Yachimun pottery and accessories that give you a sense of Okinawa. There are some things that you can't easily find in Naha, so I think it's a shop worth visiting. In addition, other classrooms also have tenants such as a cafe, a second-hand bookstore, and a sauna. The craft shop was wonderful, but the reuse and operation of a closed elementary school is a fascinating spot. If you go to the northern part of Okinawa as part of your sightseeing, be sure to stop by.
