    Impressive example of Samurai House and which is still inhabited by the same family Ishiguro after 12 generations. I have to pay entrance and a member of the family gives us a guided tour with explanations in English. In a room of the House there is a small museum with a few reduced funding including a pair of katanas, a collection of tsubas and samurai armor. Interesting visit.
