Rute
We travel deeper into the mountains by private vehicle to the secluded hamlet of Onta, where the valley hums with the rhythmic echo of water-powered clay mallets. With your host, you’ll step behind the scenes into private heritage grounds, communal kilns, and — conditions permitting — historic workshop areas usually closed to visitors.

About Oita
Oita is the port capital of a Kyushu prefecture famous for hot springs, with a hill of wild monkeys, ancient stone Buddhas and fresh seafood.
Oita sits on Beppu Bay on the east side of Kyushu, a modern city in a prefecture that has more hot-spring sources than any other in Japan. Its centre has a castle park, wide avenues and covered shopping streets. The Takasakiyama Natural Zoological Garden, on a forested hill by the sea, is home to troops of wild Japanese macaques that come down to be fed.
