A beautiful Western-style building in Tottori. The entrance fee is only 150 yen. You can learn about the history of the building through the pictures inside it. Be careful that you have to take off your shoes before entering. There is no air conditioner inside so it was quite hot. It only takes 10 minutes to go around the building if you do not read the history part of it. The view from the garden is pretty, there is a grass area where you take photo of the building beautifully.

It is interseting to see a western residence on castle ruin area. The residence is very beautiful and I love to learn the history about it. However it is a pity that the wall decayed. It should be renovated.

Only ¥150 admissions fee to this beautiful house and gardens. Enjoy good views from the second floor and also sitting in the Japanese style (fusion?) garden. To see the whole place, it only takes about 30 minutes. This space can also be rented out.

Very well preserved French Renaissance building with lots of interesting artefacts inside. All of the information is in Japanese however there is an audio track played frequently that gives information in English. The spiral staircase built with no supporting beams is amazing and the gardens are just stunning! For the cheap ¥150 entrance fee, it is well worth a look!
