Small museum of two old houses that have been well preserved. This is a good way to view how samurai in the lower ranks lived. Admission is free and the visit is really short (max ~15 minutes) so there's no reason not to go if you're near !

Completely free and quick to get through. There were two houses we could go in and both required us to take off our shoes. Wonderfully kept grounds and I highly recommend stopping by.

This small museum has two old foot soldier houses that have been preserved. It's a great way to see how the lower ranked samurai lived in the past. The admission is free, so there isn't any excuse not to stop by if you are in the area.

Fantastic place to see. Not much English translation so have your translation app ready.

The most basic of homes for the lower tier Samurai. It's worth a quick pop in.
