- What to expect
-
The guide will wait for you at the Riso kiln parking lot. The president of the Riso kiln will take you into the studio, which is usually closed to the public, and explain the process of making the works. We will also visit a new factory that uses the latest technology. *This tour takes you to areas of the studio etc.. that are not open to the public. As a result, there are many steps and stairs, making it difficult to use a wheelchair or stroller.
