Opened in 1948 and recently renovated, this gallery feels like an intimate museum of Japanese bamboo art. Many of the works were made by well-known artists from around Beppu and range from sky-high-priced baskets for ikebana (flower arranging) to tableware and even shoehorns.
It's the tan, stucco-front building just outside the Yayoi Arcade, across from Okinado.
