The Seto Mono factory in Seto City received points deductions because they littered Seto Mono pottery scraps in parks and vacant lots and did not clean up! City hall has also neglected such people until now!

There are many exhibits such as the history of chinaware, but just looking at them is not enough. The entrance is difficult to find, perhaps because the exterior wall of the building is being renovated, but you can find it once you enter the parking lot.

It's a good place to experience Seto's culture and history, and it's also a great place to learn.

This is a place I might not normally go to, but I decided to visit it on a tour. The curator explained it to me, so I was able to understand it very well. There was no mention of the toilet in the photo, but I happened to go in and see it and was surprised. Now, what are dolls made of?
