Ohashi House, Historic house museum in Kurashiki, Japan
The Ohashi House exhibits traditional Japanese residential architecture with white walls, wooden lattice windows, and tiled roofs in the merchant district of Kurashiki.
Built between 1796 and 1799, the Ohashi family gained their wealth through rice field and salt pan development during the Edo period in Japan.
The residence displays typical elements of machiya architecture, including tatami rooms, a rice granary, and traditional merchant house features from the late 18th century.
Visitors can explore the house from 9:00 to 17:00, with admission fees of 550 yen for adults and 350 yen for students and seniors above 65.
The property contains four buildings designated as Important Cultural Properties: the main house, entrance gate, rice storehouse, and inner storehouse.
