The Nomura Family Samurai House
The "Nomura Family Samurai Residence," the only publicly accessible samurai house at the Nagamachi Samurai District, is an attraction featuring an esteemed samurai residence from the Edo period and a beautiful garden. Highlights include the fusuma paintings in the "Upper Room" by the Kaga Domain's official painter, as well as inherited swords and armor. The garden is designed for pond appreciation, allowing visitors to enjoy the view of koi fish and ancient trees from the verandah, creating a serene atmosphere. In 2009, it was awarded two stars in the "Michelin Green Guide Japan," and it has received high ratings from American garden specialty magazines. Enjoying matcha tea in the tea room on the second floor while overlooking the garden is also highly recommended.
