    Yamaguchi Pref. Hagishi Gofukumachi -Minamikore Town
    This 0.5 kilometer road leads from Haruwaka-cho to Minami Furuhagi-machi. It was named after the fact that it passes by the Kikuya Family manor, once used as accommodations by traveling inspectors of the Tokugawa Bakufu and given over as troop headquarters. The street walls are lined with tessellated patterns, preserving the original castle town atmosphere for the current day. The street also runs by the birthplaces of Shinsaku Takasugi, and Giichi Tanaka.

  • Hiyako Kaimagari

    Yamaguchi Hagi-shi Hiyako
    The term kaimagari, also called oimawashi suji, is one of the defensive measures, and refers to a special form of street that is lined with tall earthen walls on both sides, and frequently turns at right angles to break the line of sight of attackers entering into the castle town and allow the defenders to bottle them up. These streets were built to protect the houses of local nobility, and remnants can still be found near the old Tanaka villa in Hiyako, alongside the old Kuchiba family residence in Horiuchi district, and in Daikodama Yokocho. In the fruit season, the sight of bright yellow summer oranges peeking over the tall kaimagari walls is a truly Hagi-esque scene, and quiet strolls through this old-fashioned scenery are a popular pastime even today.

    Yamaguchi Hagi-shi Horiuchi
    Kaimagari, also called oimawashi suji, is one of the defensive measures, and refers to a special form of street that is lined with tall earthen walls on both sides, and which frequently turns at right angles to break the line of sight of attackers entering into the castle town and allow the defenders to bottle them up. The Horiuchi district, which is equivalent to the castle's Sannomaru (outermost region of the castle)in the feudal era, was lined with historic buildings like the old domain government offices, and the manors of the important samurai of ranks, such as Mori clan (top rank), Eidai-garo (permanent chief retainers , and Yorigumi (senior vassals). Quiet strolls through this old-fashioned scenery retaining traditional Hagi style are a popular pastime even today.

Yamaguchi Areas

around-area-map

Heading west along Japan’s largest island, Honshu, the very last prefecture you’ll reach is Yamaguchi, separated from Kyushu by a small strip of water known as the Kanmon Straits, which the far-reaching harbor city Shimonoseki looks over. With water at every turn, the seafood of Yamaguchi is an indisputable highlight, and we’re not talking just the usual fish dishes - the notorious fugu, or puffer fish, is a Japanese delicacy that was discovered in Yamaguchi prefecture, making it the best place to try it out.
