It is not spectacular like a silk kimono or senshu folding fan made of handmade washi paper, but the cotton tenugui hand towel is as characteristically Japanese as kimono and fans, and can be used in many more ways, including as a decorative item with or without a frame. Tenugui are found all over Japan and are one of the most common souvenirs. The Fujinomiya Sightseeing Spots Tenugui Hand Towel is one such souvenir tenugui, advertising the city in Shizuoka Prefecture, one of the many places you can visit to enjoy vistas of Mount Fuji.
Like most of its kind, the Fujinomiya Sightseeing Spots Tenugui Hand Towel is 340 x 900 mm (13.4 x 35.4") but in those few square inches, its designer has managed to cram everything worth seeing in the city, from Japan's iconic mountain on the top to the famous Sengen Taisha shrine, the Gojinka Matsuri festival, the Asagiri Plateau, Shiraito Falls, and the nijimasu rainbow trouts that are farmed in the area. And all laid out around two big characters reading "daikichi" (great luck), since MtFuji is considered one of the most auspicious symbols in Japan!
