Ochiairou, which has seven registered tangible cultural properties, holds cultural property tours of the building at 10am and 5pm✨
It was very interesting and fun to go around while the staff at Ochiairou explained about the decorations made by the traditional techniques of artisans and the story of Kumiko craftsmanship☺️💗
The rosewood tree in the rosewood room, which uses rosewood trees over 2000 years old as pillars, is said to have all been carved, which is surprising😳
