Facility
The building we call Bukeyashiki was built about 140 years ago and took about 10 years to build. Bukeyashiki was first owned by a very wealthy family and then used as a restaurant for several years. In 1976, Mr. Nakajima purchased the building and used it for volunteers to have meetings. Now Bukeyashiki is used for all people to have gatherings and meetings, but also for filming movies and commercials and learn about Japanese culture. Please come and visit us!
After you enter the big entrance room, you will see big wooden pillars crossing the ceiling. Each pillar came from a single large tree, not pressed wood as is standard today.
Bukeyashiki was built about 140 years ago. It is approaching an age to be registered as a cultural property. The roof is high to help cool the rooms during summer. Rooms open widely so you can use for a variety of purposes.
