Inami Town

Japan’s Woodcarving Capital

About

Japan’s Woodcarving Capital The picturesque town of Inami offers the rare chance to experience woodcarving on a grand scale. With over 120 workshops, everything from shop signage to benches and even a phone booth has been intricately carved from wood. Don’t miss the magnificent woodcarvings at Zuisen-ji Temple, and join a local carver to make your own wooden memento. Stay at Bed & Craft, a collection of beautifully restored houses turned into artful accommodations, or dine at Nomi, where smoked dishes are infused with cypress, chestnut, and cherry wood chips from local workshops. Inami’s bakery, brewery, and creative studios—many reborn from abandoned buildings—showcase how craftsmanship and community have revitalised this remarkable town.
