Takahashi Samurai Manor - Old Orii Home (高梁市武家屋敷・旧折井家)
4.0
This old samurai residence is about a 15-minute walk from JR Bitchu-Takahashi Station. It is located in Ishibiya-cho, amidst a number of other samurai residences, in the ruins of the outermost region of Bitchu Matsuyama Castle, and it is a designated Takahashi City Important Cultural Property. Built in the Tempo era, it is a beautiful stucco walled structure with a formal, architecturally traditional main house. The courtyard has a pond and garden stones that appear almost exactly like they did when the house was in use. The while stucco and heavy beams of the Nagayamon gate are particularly lovely. Inside you'll find displays of weapons and daily lifestyle items to offer a look at how life was lived long ago.

Okayama Areas
Overshadowed by Hiroshima to the west and the Kansai region to the east, Okayama is an easy spot to miss but a nature-rich gem where the Seto Inland Sea laps at its toes and peach and grape farms complete its interior. One of Japan's Three Great Gardens, Koraku-en in Okayama city is well worth a visit before progressing to Kurashiki, where preserved wooden Edo buildings line the picturesque canal.
