Ota family residence

Beautifully preserved Edo period Japanese residence and attached sake brewery. The rooms were pristine and very spacious. The sake brewery has been for the most part untouched with the original tools and barrels. A must visit residence when in the quaint fishing village of Tomonoura.

This house was built during 18th century and some famous nobles stayed here for a few days. It has some attractive points to see such as warehouse, garden, ceiling and wall. The family who lived here sold “Homei-shu” during Edo period all over Japan. And then, they produced it here so there are some warehouses. The reason why they could build such a great house was they were allowed to sell Homei-shu dominantly by Han, the lord. Thanks to its policy, they could make fortune. Este es edificio muy grande y maravilloso y fue fundado durante Edo tiempo(siglo 18). Hay un jardín pequeño. Eso representa el espíritu Sado, espíritu de té en Japón. Si llama atención a su pilar en edificio, puede encontrar un dibujo tradicional que se llama “Kugi-kakushi “.

This was a memorable visit. We were just two of us at that time and the 3 elderly people there were just waiting for people to come visit so they could do the tour. We were with a lovely lady who read the English explanations for us and it was very helpful to understand all the different parts of the buildings. It s a huge house that served as a sake brewery and shop as well as an inn. GO!!!!

A lot of traditional old buildings. Very lovely to walk around in the morning.
