Gifu fans

Gifu fans are special fans that people use in Japan, particularly in the Gifu prefecture. They are made from a type of paper called washi which is strong and flexible. The fans are folded in a specific way to create a shape that can be opened and closed easily by the user.

The fans come in different sizes and designs, but most of them have beautiful patterns and colors. Some of them even have pictures of famous landmarks or animals from Japan.

People use Gifu fans to cool themselves down during hot weather, but they are also used as decorations. Some people like to display them in their homes or give them as gifts to friends and family.

To use a Gifu fan, you hold it by the handle and then flick your wrist to open it up. Then, you can wave it back and forth to create a breeze. When you're finished using it, you simply fold it back up into its original shape.

Gifu fans are not only practical but also cultural symbols that have been used for hundreds of years in Japan. They are admired for their beauty and the skill it takes to make them. So, if you ever visit Japan or see a Gifu fan, you'll know what it's for and what makes it special!
