Glass Workshop
When the herring fishing industry declined in the 1950s, the makers of glass buoys diverted their business to produce refined glassware, as the demand for buoys plunged. The result today are numerous glass shops, which now carter mainly to souvenir hungry tourists.
Among the glass related attractions are the Kitaichi Glass Shops of Otaru's most famous glass maker, the Otaru Unga Kogeikan where tourists can create their own cups in a workshop, "The Glass Ship" which is a glass shop in a former warehouse and the Kitaichi Venetian Art Museum with glass art from Venice.
