DAY 10: We visit Imanishike Shoin







In early times, some Naramachi merchants became extremely wealthy, among them the Imanishi family of sake brewers who built the Imanishi Shoin in the 16th century as an office and reception hall for high-ranking visitors.





Imanishike Shoin is a lovely old house dating to the Muromachi period and is built in the shoin , or library, style. There are a few small gardens here that are well framed by the house itself.
