    Oita Kitsuki-shi Kitsuki 211-1
    "This samurai residence, a five-minute drive from the Kitsuki Interchange on the Oita Airport Road, stands at the top of the Kanjoba no Saka road in Kitsuki City's Kitadai area. The residence was used as part of the ""rakuju-tei"" residences officially used as rest and relaxation spaces by the local domain's feudal lords. Today, the residence' entranceway, tatami mat parlor, and three tearooms still remain in their original state. The residence was remodeled several times but always with a focus on superb hospitality as a relaxation space, and this can be seen in part in the calculated beauty of the residence' garden, of which each of the residence' windows offers a difference scenic view."

    入口に立派な蘇轍があります。 他の武家屋敷よりもとても風情がある武家屋敷です。庭もよく手入れされています。

    Oita Kitsuki-shi Kitsuki 207
    This residence stands at the top of the Suya no Saka hill road in Kitsuki City's Kitadai area a five-minute drive from the Kitsuki Interchange on the Oita Airport Road. The residence belonged to the Ohara family, whose members served as the chief retainers in the former Kitsuki Domain. An architectural heritage site of immense historical value, the residence reveals the tastes and lifestyles of high-ranking samurai of the time. Features such as the magnificent double-doored gate; stately thatched roof; spacious entranceway; and high, bowed roof are simple and sturdy yet reveal the high social standing of the family. The residence' vast strolling garden with pond is perhaps the best maintained of any of the samurai residences in Kitsuki.

A trip to Oita is tantamount to a long soak in the Beppu baths. The mountainous, coastal prefecture of Oita is renowned for having more onsen than any other prefecture in Japan, most of which lie in the city of Beppu on the west coast of Kyushu, recognizable by its pungent sulphuric aroma and the clouds of steam that puff up across the hillside. Away from the Beppu hot springs await mountains, waterfalls, and temples, so don’t hesitate to explore Oita a little further.
