It has been popular for centuries for use in kimono and obi as a silk textile due to its tensility and thickness of the fabric. At this annual event, new pieces of Hakata ori are displayed inside Jotenji Zen Temple – the birthplace of Hakata ori. The location itself is a reason for visiting – the inside of Jotenji is not usually open to the public. Enjoy the autumn foliage, and optional tea ceremony (fee req.) in the Japanese Karesansui (rock) garden. Attend wearing kimono to receive a small gift!
