The Old Mekata Family House

Address: 2 Chome-6 Yokoyama, Iwakuni, Yamaguchi 741-0081, Japan. Getting there: The residence is just located at the back of the famous Kikko Park in Iwakuni city. Highlights: This Mekata Family's House is a former residence belonged to the Mekada family, who were mid-level samurai. You cannot actually enter the residence, but can walk around it and observe it from a few steps away. However, I think this is sufficient to enjoy the history and very much worth it. It is in a good state of preservation, and is a valuable cultural heritage site. The roof covered with double-sleeved tiles, which is also known as Iwakuni tiles, has a high design and looks amazing! Opening hours: 9.30am to 4.30pm daily Admission fee: free of charge #bucketlistreboot #traveljapan #culturewalk
