BARBARA COFFEE ROASTERS

Quaint streets tinged with a 1950s air

Since its opening in the winter of 2021, thiscafé has drawn much attention on social
media with its photogenic desserts anddrinks. The incredibly lifelike taxidermied
animals placed throughout the café will surely
catch your eye, too!

Tokoname City has been a production center of ceramics for over 1,000 years, and in its heyday
in around the 1950s, the Yakimono Sanpomichi (Pottery Footpath) was dotted with a myriad ofpottery factories.

Ceramic pipes and shochu bottles, which could not be shipped, have long been reused as
construction materials to build retaining walls on the steep hillside and to provide an anti-slipfeature to the slopes. They are still in use today along the pottery trails, such as on Dendenzaka,
so look for the sights and feel the ambience of those old days.
If you would like to learn more about the history of Tokoname ware, make sure to visit theTokoname Tounomori (Tokoname Pottery Forest) (see p. 7), too.
