Yoshida Fureai Kunayasu-no-Sato in Yoshida Town, Uwajima City, is a rustic and beautiful historical experience-type facility where you can experience firsthand the history and culture of a castle town that once flourished grandly through the production of unique Japanese paper and wax (mokuro) as a branch domain of the Uwajima domain during the Edo period. Within the vast premises, mansions of wealthy merchants of the time, prestigious samurai residences, farmhouses, and private homes are beautifully relocated and reproduced with their ancient architectural techniques intact, spreading a nostalgic landscape as if slipping through time into Edo-period Japan the moment you step inside. Beyond precious historical documents and daily tools demonstrating the rigorous living of the time being exhibited, traditional craft making experiences can also be enjoyed, serving as an ideal learning venue for international travelers wishing to touch the wisdom and aesthetics of traditional Japanese living deeply.
