Bukeyashiki Samurai Street

Bukeyashiki Samurai Street (武家屋敷通り) takes you back to the days of the Edo Period, when the samurai class lived in this part of town. The main street has been beautifully paved to match the historic stone walls and a few surviving front gates that still line the road, creating a charming, nostalgic atmosphere.

While the street view preserves a historical feeling, many of the original residences behind the walls have been replaced with modern buildings. Still, a walk along Bukeyashiki Samurai Street offers a peaceful glimpse into Japan’s samurai heritage, perfect for history lovers and photographers alike.
