    Original Text

    About 10 minutes walk from Takehara station. The house of the Shiota owner built in 1872 (Meiji 5). Free admission. The beams and half-timbered structures on the 2nd floor are wonderful. Also, from the windows on the 2nd floor, you can see the road leading to the old houses in front of you. At the time of the visit, 'Takehara town cherry blossoms' was held in the town preservation district of Takehara, and there was a color 々 cherry blossom doll from Edo to Heisei.

    A house in the early Meiji period that can be visited for free

    Original Text

    When I was strolling around the Takehara Townscape Preservation District, there was a house where I could visit for free, so I entered. I took off my shoes at the entrance and was able to freely tour the room. The house was built in the early Meiji era, but it is very well preserved and I felt that I could still live normally.

    Great location overlooking the townscape preservation district, the scenery overlooking from the 2 floor is recommended

    Original Text

    The salt fields built at the entrance of the Takehara Townscape Preservation District are the site of the owner's mansion. 2 When you go upstairs and look at the thick beams, you can feel that even a small beach owner had financial power at that time. Another attraction of this mansion is the splendor of the scenery from the 2 floor. Located in the T-shaped dew, which is the starting point of the preservation district, it is a location overlooking the main street of the townscape preservation district that continues north. Come on, 2 Go upstairs and enjoy the scenery.

    It becomes the venue of the cherry blossoms

    Original Text

     It is close to the entrance of the Takehara Townscape Preservation District and the roadside station Takehara (Tourist Information Center). It is a mansion of the Shiota owner called Hamashu, and the large roof of the main tiled roof is spectacular. It is also used for venues and various events (admission fee is free).
