Description:

An Edo-period samurai village centered on a samurai estate (bukeyashiki) with clustered wooden residences, earthen walls, and a formal main house featuring tatami rooms, sliding shōji, and tiled roofs. Layout includes a grand wooden gate, watchtower/guard post, dojo, small shrine or temple, tea house, merchant stalls along narrow stone-paved streets, manicured gardens with stone lanterns and koi pond, and surrounding rice paddies or farmland to frame the village. Materials and details emphasize dark timber, clay roof tiles, bamboo fences, stone pathways and lantern lighting to evoke historical Japanese architecture and atmosphere.
