[2025 Yomitan Attraction] Travel Guide for Yachimun no Sato (Updated May)

Yachimun, the pottery that decorates Okinawan cuisine, is something that everyone will see many times during their trip to Okinawa. It's nice to visit the shops scattered around Tsuboya Street in Naha and Yomitan, but if you want to go yachimun hunting in a short amount of time, I definitely recommend Yachimun Village! Walking along the path surrounded by greenery while listening to the beautiful birds, it's a good distance to explore to the end. There is a free parking lot and toilet at the beginning of the street, which is convenient. The yachimun displayed in front of each shop is also a must-see. Address: 2653-1 Zakimi, Yomitan Village, Nakagami District, Okinawa Prefecture 904-0301 Atmosphere/Facilities: A quiet street that you can stroll around at your leisure except during events.

Average price: From 1000 yen, depending on the dish Budget per person: Some stores accept electronic money such as Merpay♪ Save up some money for Yachimun😄 Rating: Best #Okinawa #Yomitan #Souvenir #Drive #Dishes

Yomitan Village, home to 19 Yachimun workshops [Yachimun no Sato] This is an old-fashioned craft village where potters work together. The site is very large, and in the center of the village is a climbing kiln with a row of red tile roofs. You can also enjoy the typical Okinawan scenery. The workshops exhibit and sell their works. However, since the site is large, it takes time and energy to walk around and see all the workshops. When you go to Yachimun no Sato, it's a good idea to check each workshop in advance.

2653-1 Zakimi, Yomitan Village, Nakagami District, Okinawa Prefecture, 904-0301 This is a village where Okinawan pottery yachimun kilns are gathered. I went on a Saturday, and the parking lot wasn't that crowded. The kilns are scattered around, each with its own characteristics, so it's fun to look around at each one. I bought a few plates that I liked. There are also several cafes, and the time flows so leisurely that I lost track of time and ended up staying for a long time. This is a great spot for pottery lovers. #OkinawaTrip #YachimunVillage #Pottery #PotteryTour
