A well-preserved samurai residence of a high-ranking retainer of the Hagi Domain, characterized by its traditional architecture and a unique water system.

The refined garden and the dignified rooms where the samurai of the time spent their days exude an atmosphere where history quietly breathes. Touching the sophisticated lifestyle and aesthetic sense of the Edo period while looking at the quietly flowing water provides a special experience that makes you feel as if you’ve slipped back in time. It is a valuable facility where you can learn about Hagi’s culture and wisdom from the perspective of “water and life.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
