Home of the calligraphy (and more recently the make up) brush, the small town of Kumano produces the bulk of Japan’s high quality brushes. The Fude Matsuri is a festival held every year on the autumnal equinox, a national holiday in Japan, to give thanks to the product that has put the town on the map.
Kumano is 45 minutes by bus from Hiroshima JR Station (platform 13) and 35 minutes from Kure JR Station (platform 2)
