おとずれ堂

長門湯本温泉観光まちづくりの過程の中で、ふわっと生まれた小さなお店。 まちを訪ねてくれた人にちょっと役に立って、まちを知ってもらったり、好きになってもらえるような、そんな場所をめざしています。 おとずれ堂には、長門湯本温泉エリアのイベントや周辺のみどころを知ることができる「まちの番台」があります。 おとずれ堂には、長門湯本温泉の思い出になるような、オリジナルの小物やおいしいお土産屋が少しずつあります。 おとずれ堂は、深川萩焼のことを知ることができる、小さなギャラリーです。 建物は、十二代坂倉新兵衛先生とご縁のあった姉妹が建てた民家。 お店の内装は、旅好きのオーナーとその友人、京都造形芸術大学の建築学生がボランティアで改修しました。 内装には、地域のおじちゃんやおばちゃんが床に埋めた一二三石や、旧恩湯や寿美よし荘などの古い温泉タイルが使われています。 場所：山口県長門市深川湯本2321-1 JR西日本　美祢線「長門湯本駅」から　徒歩10分　長門湯本温泉駐車場からすぐ Otozuredo is a small shop that sprang forth from the process of tourism development in the Nagato Yumoto hot spring area. It was built with the goal of being useful for the people that visit our town, in the hopes that they can get to know the area and come to love it. The "town watch stand" is the part of Otozuredo where you can learn about events in and around Nagato Yumoto hot spring as well as the area's highlights. Otozuredo also has as small selection original accessories and delicious souvenirs that can serve as pleasant memories of your trip. Otozuredo is also a small gallery where you can learn about Fukawa Hagi ware. The building itself is a private residence built by sisters who had ties with the 12th potter of the Sakakura Shinbei line. The shop's interior was refurbished by the travel loving owner and their friend, a student of architecture at the Kyoto University of Art and Design, who volunteered their time. The interior features hifumi ishi (one-two-three stones), a traditional Japanese pattern made of irregular groupings of three pebbles, which were placed in the floor by local senior citizens, as well as old bath house tiles from the area's former hot springs such as Onto and Sumiyoshi Yoshi So.
