they can understand some English and respond to gestures,
so don't feel afraid to come pay us a visit.
Kamiho (Store paper) Ajioka is located at the center of Hamamatsu City, in Shizuoka prefecture, in a charming alley a few minutes away from Hamamatsu station. It mainly sells Japanese paper and materials for painting and calligraphy, but besides this it also has an assortment of Japanese arts and crafts such as postcards, towels or fans that give a feeling of Japanese culture. The assortment of arts and crafts on display changes according to the seasons.
The owner, who has vast knowledge in playing with Japanese paper, also teaches origami for grownups who enjoy more advanced folding at regularly held workshops.
