藁
wara, “straw/rice straw.”
My wife, , stopped by the Iwamuro onsen area here in Niigata today to hear her friend’s band play. I found my way outside as I wasn’t too interested in the music, and to my delight, discovered a bunch of cleverly fashioned doggos made of wara, or rice straw. Have a look!
