Visiting an important cultural property Inspired by a book written by Yataro Matsuura, I had a go at visiting one of the important cultural properties in Japan (Kyu-Iwasakitei, Gardens.) This property consists of three buildings and the vast gardens. The western residence and the billiard room were designed by a British architect, Josiah Condor, who educated Western-style architecture in Japan. Also, there is the Japanese-style building annexed to the Western residence. Here is a quick rundown of what makes this site exceptional; ・British Minton tiles used on the first-floor veranda are splendid. ・There are vast gardens, which are outstanding. ・Women’s guest rooms decorated with Islamic motifs are gorgeous, they look really pretty. It’s almost hard to believe that it was built over one hundred years ago. ・The guest room on the second floor decorated with valuable Japanese leather paper (Kin-kara-kawashi) is absolutely stunning. ・In a sunroom, there are bay windows looking out of the beautiful garden, it's very nice to soak up the sun. The room is filled with a copious amount of sunshine poured into it. It's perfect for a peaceful weekend gateway in Tokyo.
