We set up our shop at the cruise terminal from 12:00 noon and warmly welcomed visitors until around 5:30 p.m.
Our display featured a variety of Japanese-inspired souvenirs, including miniature samurai helmets, replica Japanese swords, Japanese sword-shaped letter openers, traditional Japanese tenugui towels, hand mirrors decorated with Japanese patterns, and magnets featuring Japanese kanji characters.
Many visitors showed great interest in our products and seemed delighted to discover these unique pieces of Japanese culture. It was a wonderful opportunity to share a little of Japan's traditional craftsmanship and samurai spirit with people from around the world.
We sincerely thank everyone who stopped by our shop. We hope these special souvenirs will bring back fond memories of their visit to Kagoshima!
We look forward to welcoming you again!
