Kyomachiya in Mibu
Mibu Area
– A Neighborhood Rich in Late-Edo History
Centered around Mibu-dera Temple, famous for the traditional Mibu Kyogen plays, the area is home to historical landmarks such as Yagi Residence, once used as the Shinsengumi’s quarters, and Former Maekawa Residence, which served as their main base. For those fascinated by Japanese history, this neighborhood is truly captivating.
