[About Kitsuki Samurai Residences]
Kitsuki, located in Oita Prefecture, is often called Japan’s only samurai town with samurai districts on both sides of a commercial street. The Kitadai (north) and Minamidai (south) samurai quarters face each other across a slope lined with merchant houses. These districts preserve samurai residences, white plaster walls, and stone steps, offering a glimpse into the Edo-period townscape. Today, Kitsuki remains one of Japan’s most atmospheric samurai towns.

【杵築の武家屋敷について】
杵築は「商人の町を挟んで両側に武家屋敷が残る日本唯一の城下町」として知られています。北台と南台の武家屋敷群が向かい合うように残され、白壁や石畳、武家門などが往時の姿を伝えています。

⚠️ Rainy days make stone steps very slippery. Please be careful.
⚠️ 雨の日は石段が大変滑りやすいのでご注意ください。
