Former Hosokawa Gyobu Residence

Su Former Hosokawa Gyobu Residence

This is a rare opportunity to witness the authentic architectural style of an Edo-period daimyo residence up close.
We highly recommend observing the intricate details, such as the Karahafu entrance and the elegant Omote-shoin.
Enjoy the diverse landscape featuring the 'Kankatei' tea room and the two-story 'Shunshokaku' building.
For a more fulfilling trip, combine this visit with a historical exploration of the Kumamoto Castle area.
