A house that once belonged to a samurai. The garden is amazing and the museum is interesting. The atmosphere in the house brings back the past and is very relaxing

The place was beautiful to walk through but very crowded. I would have wished that entry was stopped because we had to queue up to walk through the upstairs bedrooms. The garden is so pretty as well. You have to take off your shoes before and pay an entrance fee. Tip: ask the staff how full it is.

This was a fantastic tour. It was in Japanese and I do not speak Japanese, but you are given a pamphlet in English that explains everything. The house has so many hidden defensive secrets that the nickname of a samurai house is appropriate. It has very limited openings to tour but is at the top of my list for things to see and do in Kanazawa. You have to personally call one month in advance for reservations. The person I spoke with spoke excellent English and was able to make the reservations for me without a problems. You can’t take pictures inside but I have included exterior pictures. The door picture with the white steps looks like one door, but actually goes to two separate address- one outside and one inside.

If you're interested in seeing a traditional Japanese house, and a Samurai one at that, this is a great place to visit. The two storey house is complete with a displayed Samurai suit and some other relics of the era, indoor tatami living areas, altar, and a really tranquil and beautiful house garden with a water feature and koi. It's not particularly big, as it was a residence after all, but it is charming in its own way and people like to sit by the garden and pond to enjoy the tranquil ambience.

Learning about the history of the samurai was interesting and cool. The garden was really beautiful and there were a lot of preserved items such as weapons, old coins from the Edo era and armour.

A worthwhile visit to see how an important samurai’s house looked like but this house also has one of the most amazing Japanese garden ever. Kids would love the large colourful koi fish in pond. Adults 500Y. There is a tiny museum as well there that’s also interesting to see older swords, coins and collectibles.
Tip: bring cash and use only smart phones for cameras! Bring student ID for discount.

Great to see how the samurai would have lived, gardens where beautiful and peaceful, be careful it is a tourist spot so it may be crowded, when I went there where lots of loud children which where very annoying and didn’t follow the rules of the place at all, they treated it like a playground, other than that it was an amazingly decorated house with so many amazing details, I would definitely recommend going in the off season as it will be quieter. Tickets were cheap too and there was no need to reserve in advance.

A must-see in Kanazawa. Visit an authentic samurai house. Enjoy the beautiful interior gardens. You can feel the peace and harmony. Very low entrance fee.

We visited this residence during spring. It is not the biggest place but worth every Yen. The residence is well cared for and it is fascinating to step into the past. The absolute highlight is the garden.
It was very lush and well cared for. I imagine it being different kinds of beautiful, depending on the time of year.

A must-see samurai house with a stunning garden in Kanazawa. Every Japanese element is packed in this traditional architecture. You can enjoy true zen atmosphere in the garden and the tea room. Also, don’t miss out fine details of walls and ceilings.

The ticket was a bit expensive, but the Japanese styled garden made it worth it. Sitting by the garden feels so relaxing and peaceful, it’s the perfect place to spend some time after a tiring walk through the samurai district.

Great introduction of a part of a traditional Samourai house, don’t except to see a lot as most of the original house was destroyed,
But the garden is magic

The house is beautiful, the many inner gardens, big and small, are extremely poetic and we spent quite a while sitting down in contemplation. Beauful samurai armature at the entrance. Once out of the house, we meandered along the ways around the house where you can see more houses in old Japanese style and artist pottery studios. Absolutely worth the visit. By the way, entrance fee of 500yen must be paid in cash.

An interesting and unexpected historical site. Was cheap and virtually empty. Highly recommended!
Walk in, get a taste for what life had been some hundred years earlier. A very peaceful home during a very violent time.
Dont bring kids that can't stand still. During my visit, there were some young kids running around and into places that are off limits like this historical site was a playground. Imagine your child damages a 200 year old artifact... If you can't manage them, skip this spot.

To me, the garden here was as beautiful as Kenroku-en because you can get up close and personal with the greenery and the design. One could spend hours watching the big koi fish drift by, soothed by the sounds of flowing water amidst a dense canopy of trees.
The house in itself is remarkable in its design, expanse and quality of preservation. There are multiple vantage points that offer a great view, and the indoors are filled with traditional details in the form of intricately painted screen doors, an ornate altar, tatami, katana and a superb set of armour.
There is also a tea room on the upper floor that seats up to 4 people for 15 minutes at a time.

A historic site of Samurai house. It’s unreal feeling when seeing the samurai sword which is recognized by authorities.
The rooms and the garden also give the imagination of how they live and work. One of best sightseeing spot in Kanazawa.
