March 2022. I was in the same village again.
What was once a part of everyday life has suddenly become a fantasy due to COVID-19.
I wondered if such a place really existed and if people were still weaving there. I wondered if I was just having a convenient dream.
So when I was able to revisit that place, it felt like the epitome of fantasy.
It was as if I had resisted the irreversible flow of time and come upon an unexpected riverbank.
Only the memory of the woven cloth and the sound of the looms tells me that it is not a dream.

OPEN 12:00-18:00
CLOSED Tue. &Wed.
The village is located beyond the pastoral landscapes. The light sound of the loom echoes through the dazzling green scenery surrounded by a large river. The weavers are like musicians. The cloth melodies that come out of the loom and memorizes them, creating a soothing sound.
Please come and experience the fabric woven in this green village.
