Hachimantai Geothermal Dye Studio GEOCOLOR
One of the more unique ways to enjoy the bounty of nature Hachimantai has to offer. GEOCOLOR is a dyeing studio that uses geothermal steam straight from underground as a key part of the color process. This technique, honed painstakingly through trial and error, creates unique gradients of color each and every time, based on natural conditions such as the current season and underground steam levels.
The result is that you’ll walk away with a design that is uniquely yours and can’t be replicated. You can try out dyeing for yourself with a hands-on workshop; reservations are required, and they sell out quick, so we recommend contacting them early! Details can be found on their website.
*This production was made with funds from the “Expressway Promotion & Tourism Project”, which is sponsored by the National Land Planning Association.
