Besides these, we have such local traditional crafts as Echizen Washi (Japanese paper), Echizen lacquer ware, and Wakasa lacquered chopsticks produced with the techniques that have been continuously passed down since ancient times. You can also experience Zen meditation at Zen temples such as Eiheiji Temple and so on. (By Fukui tourism association)
