Hagi・Meirin Gakusha: A Time Travel to the Knowledge Hub of Hagi

Located in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, "Hagi・Meirin Gakusha" is a historic building constructed on the site of the former domain school, Meirinkan✨. Today, it serves as a tourist hub, offering exhibits that allow visitors to experience the learning environment of the late Edo period samurai and introducing the culture and industries of Hagi through its museum.

Walking through the wooden school building evokes a sense of nostalgia, creating a calming atmosphere. The exhibits are meticulously curated, providing deep insights into Hagi's history and figures like Yoshida Shoin and Takasugi Shinsaku📚.

The facility also features a café and shop, making it a perfect spot for a travel break☕.

🚃 Access: About a 10-minute walk from JR Higashi-Hagi Station
🚗 By car: Approximately 50 minutes from the Chugoku Expressway "Mine East IC" (parking available)

Whether you're a couple exploring history together or a solo traveler enjoying a journey of knowledge, this destination offers something for everyone. I left feeling like I wanted to spend more time exploring the exhibits thoroughly next time🕰️.
