- This is a tour of an Edo period residence of a samurai family in Hagi city; an old castle town located in Yamaguchi prefecture. The last Yukawa to live in the house donated it to the city as a cultural asset. The family currently resides in Kyushu. The house is open all year and admission is one hundred yen.
Located in a quiet neighborhood at the mouth of the Aiba river, the house uses the river in its design by diverting the river to run through the garden and house before rejoining the river where it exists into the bay.
I love this house; beautiful and practical! The grounds are amazing, and the koi wonderful! Wish I could be there😊 Spectacular 🤩🤩🤩🙏
I do love the practicality of the house design. And its nestled at the tip of a river delta in a quite neighborhood. so nice.
What a coincidence! I'm on the bus from Hagi to Tokyo as I'm writing this and it's just on time that I'm seeing this video.
Hi! That's great. I hope you liked it. There's so much to see there. So easy and fun to get lost in. I try to go whenever I can. Wishing you happy travels and a happy rest of your journey. More Japanese house videos coming soon. ⛩️🍁
@@thisoldjapanesehouse Hagi is a beautiful city! It was my first time visiting, and I'm already thinking to go back there again some time. I'm a big fan of historical Japanese architecture, so I'm looking forward to more videos!

Very pretty and calming.
I am glad you liked it. The area is very quiet, a perfect spot to sit, relax, and enjoy history with some nature.
Very interesting, however the music doesn't match the feeling of "traditional"~~~
Hi there. Yeah, I had a hard time with the music choice on this one. lol. I appreciate the feedback, thank you for watching.
Liked the natural sounds in the beginning, much better.
Beautiful house. would have been better without the European jazz!
It is beautiful. I think so too; Live and learn as they say. Thank you for watching.

3:03 What am I looking at here? What are those bowls on the ledge for?
Hello! I believe those are the tea bowls and rice bowls that the family used. In the garden, there's a small shaded alcove, near the small stream that runs through the garden. The guide said that Mr. Yukawa would place his used cups in the small covered bamboo baskets down the diverted stream in the garden to the kitchen. Where they would pick them up and wash them before the water rejoined the river, just outside to the right of the photo. Sorry for the late response. Thank you so much for watching!
What is the name of the background music?
Oh, I'm sorry I deleted the file. I'm pretty sure I found it on a site called 甘茶の音楽工房 (amacha no ongaku koubou). If I find it, I will post the name.
I don't think they should sell houses like this...🤕🤧Does anyone live here?...it's beautiful.
Hi 90's アニメさん、Hello. No, no one does now. The staff explained that the last Yukawa, after lengthy family discussions, came to the conclusion to donate the house to the city. The house was lived in as is until the 1990s, so I think when they weighed the financial and historical costs of renovating and then maintaining such a property, it just seemed to make more sense to donate the house and let the public enjoy it. The garden is so nice. If you lived there, you would be so so busy every day, I think... =) Thank you for your comment and question.

@@thisoldjapanesehouse is it possible to build similar houses in future 🤔 ?
@@29359 I think for some families with deep pockets, it will be possible to build a traditional house new, but unfortunately the vast majority of houses built today are modern and western. So the Craftsmen needed to build these houses are becoming more and more difficult to find. I think fifty years from now the countryside is going to look very different.
