- Wakayama Pref. Itogunkudoyamachou Kudoyama 1327
- This is a memorial hall in Kudoyama, Kudoyama Town. It was originally built in the mid-Edo period as Koyasan Shinzoin’s Satobo, and as a private house was transferred to Kudoyama Town in 2009 in the aim of preserving it as a cultural asset and is now open to the public. It is known as a place where the nun Junkyo Oishi occasionally stayed, and they hold exhibitions of the paintings and calligraphic works she left there.

大石順教尼は踊り子で順調に人生を歩みながらも、事件で突然両手を失いながらも文字を学び、口に筆を加えて絵や文字を書き、更には女性の障害者の支援団体を作った素晴らしい方です。文字を見ると困難に負けない勇気が出ます。

- Wakayama Pref. Itogunkudoyamachou Kudoyama 1452
- This memorial hall is located on Sanada Street, a shopping street in Kudoyama Town. It showcases the achievements of Tsunejiro Matsuyama, a native Kudoyama businessman and politician. The hall occupies his renovated family home and maintains the atmosphere of the Taisho Period (1912–1926) with its Shikoro-zukuri architecture, rarely found today. Besides displays of his possessions and various documents, there are many superb paintings by the master artist Ikuo Hirayama, whose wife was Tsunejiro's oldest daughter Michiko. You'll need reservations if you're visiting with a group.

地元の政治家である松山常次郎の資料館ですが、平山郁夫さんの婦人の生家であり、絵を期待しましたが、絵は一枚もありませんでした。
Wakayama Areas
Wakayama prefecture unites pilgrims, food lovers, and culture buffs in a tranquil corner of Japan at the base of the Kii Peninsula. The setting for many a Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trail, Wakayama invites those in search of spirituality from one side of the prefecture to the other, from the 100-plus Buddhist temples of the sacred Mount Koya in the west to the inspiring temples of the Kumano Sanzan set among breathtaking nature in the east. Once the grueling hike is complete, make a beeline for Wakayama city to savor some of the country’s most delicious ramen noodles.
