Ijimino Ochaya

The Ijimino Ochaya features wooden structures constructed in Sukiya-zukuri style, incorporating traditional elements that merge with the surrounding natural environment.

During the Edo period, this establishment served as a gathering place for local daimyo leaders who conducted meetings and ceremonies within its refined spaces.

The garden incorporates specific design elements of Japanese landscaping, including carefully positioned stones, seasonal plants, and distinct pathways that guide visitors through the grounds.

The facility maintains regular visiting hours from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with guided tours available in Japanese that explain the architectural features and garden design.

The site holds dual designations as both a Place of Scenic Beauty and a member of the 100 Best Historical Parks in Japan list.
