[Eel's Bed] (Yame City, Fukuoka Prefecture, Former province name: Chikugo)

"Regional cultural trading company" -- "Unagi no Nebukuro" describes the activities that this unfamiliar company aims to achieve as follows. "Unraveling the characteristics of the land, handling distribution, creating exchanges, and connecting the landscape." -- Fukushima, the center of Yame City, Fukuoka Prefecture, retains the atmosphere of a merchant town and artisan town from the Edo period in its streetscape. This area has inherited a tranquil and abundant nature and a profoundly brilliant culture since ancient times, when Kyushu was called Tsukushi. However, in these turbulent times, inheriting this culture is not easy, and many crafts and arts are in danger of disappearing. The cause of this cannot be summarized in one thing, and it should not be, but there is certainly a problem in that the area is generally exposed to the rough waves of economic activity and is not able to make good contact with modern people. Unagi no Nebutoko, a regional cultural trading company, has analyzed this situation and created a business to overcome it. In other words, they carefully investigate the soil and people who live in the culture, correctly interpret its individuality and charm, and if the people who live in it are willing to pass it on to the next generation, they work together to find and practice ways to do so, thereby returning the necessary profits in the modern economic cycle to the regional culture. Although it is an extremely clear mechanism, the deep knowledge and thought that went into reaching this conclusion can be seen on the company's website and publications. Unagi no Nebutoko operates several shops in Yame Fukushima, where magnificent white walls, deep-shadowed timber, and old buildings of various styles line the streets. All of the shops are renovated old merchant houses, and their elegant designs blend well with the streetscape. One of them, the "Former Terasaki Residence," is positioned as a "flagship store," so to speak, and brings together Kyushu's proud regional culture, including miscellaneous goods, ingredients, art, and even "tableware." Combined with their light and stylish presentation, the items are sure to make you crouch down, pick them up, and smile. On the other hand, "Kyu Marubayashi Honke" specializes in textiles and clothing, primarily "Kurume Kasuri". Kurume Kasuri is a cotton fabric handed down in the Chikugo region (currently the southern part of Fukuoka Prefecture) and is a craft designated as an Important Intangible Cultural Property of Japan. The cotton thread is dyed first and then woven freely, deliberately creating subtle "shifts" and resulting in subtle yet rich patterns, which is its appeal. Unagi no Nedo produces this as "modern MONPE", proposing its potential as flexible and durable everyday wear. Modern MONPE is a consistent brand created by Unagi no Nedo, and today it collaborates with textile craft techniques other than Kurume Kasuri. Looking back on what I saw at the shops and reading the UNA series of Kyushu travel guides produced by Unaginonedo, I am struck by the fact that Kyushu is home to such a rich and high-quality culture. At the same time, it is up to us, the "buyers," to know, understand, and perceive these cultures as "attractive." By leaving the choice up to the buyer, Unaginonedo hopes that culture will not become rigidly bound to "tradition" or "history," but will instead open up new possibilities in line with the times. "Good things," "things we like," "attractive places"... At the root of these common values ​​that anyone can have, there must be many "inevitabilities," such as "why do we arrive at these results?" and "what kind of people's feelings are put into them?" If history, climate, and human activities are all representations of this inevitability, then even the smallest "things" and "events" are now in front of us after the multiplication of infinite inevitabilities. I firmly believe that the immense emotion that miracles bring is an affirmation of life itself. Access: About 5 minutes by car from Yame IC *Unagi no Nedo stores are also located in Fukuoka City and Ozu City, Ehime Prefecture. Recommended for solo travelers: ★★★★ (There are people, but not many. You can enjoy sightseeing in peace!)
