Niigata Saitō Villa, Historic house and Place of Scenic Beauty in Nishiōhata-chō, Japan.

The Niigata Saitō Villa features traditional sliding doors, open layouts, and natural materials that integrate with the surrounding garden landscape.

Built in 1918, this residence belonged to the Saitō family, who held substantial influence in local governance during the early twentieth century.

The villa demonstrates the transition in Japanese architecture by combining traditional design elements with modern adaptations of the early 1900s.

Visitors can join guided tours that explain the architectural features, historical background, and seasonal changes in the garden throughout the year.

The interior spaces use minimal partitions and flexible room arrangements, allowing natural light to flow through the entire structure.
