Tochigi Tochigi-shi Kauemoncho 1-12

This memorial museum celebrates the Okada family, a family whose history dates back over 550 years and which was once one of the leading families of Tochigi City. The museum's expansive grounds sprawl across some 13,000 square meters; inside, the museum displays treasures passed down through the generations in the Okada family. Said to have moved to the area from distant Sanjo in Kyoto, in the Edo period the family is said to have provided leadership in creating the foundations of daily life and to have contributed to the building of a stable community. Later, the Tokugawa clan gave the area the title of Kauemon Shinden Village, which then became Kauemon Shinden Town (now Kauemon-cho). Visitors can pass through an imposing gate and view magnificent folding screens, bridal wear dating to the Genroku era (1688-1704), and a complete set of implements used for flower viewing parties in the mid-Edo period.

御代官様が暮らしていた屋敷を、そのまま光景している施設です。栃木駅からはかなり遠いので、レンタサイクルがいいでしょう。中は、江戸時代の重厚で歴史ある光景が広がっています。

山本有三氏の歴史や、愛用の品や作品等が飾られていて、勉強になりました。「心に太陽を、くちびるに歌を」など心に響きました。

Tochigi Areas

Most visits to Tochigi revolve around Nikko, a small city home to the spectacular, lavishly decorated Toshogu Shrine and Nikko National Park with its mountains, lakes, waterfalls, onsen, and wild monkeys. Neighboring Oku-Nikko is an extension of the fantastic scenery famous for its autumn leaves, while Tochigi’s capital, Utsunomiya, is the only place in the world where you can find oya stone beautifully exhibited in temples and the Oya History Museum.
