Immerse Yourself in the Taisho Romance at Japan Taisho Mura

Ena City in Gifu Prefecture was a thriving silk-producing village during the Meiji Restoration and the Taisho period. The Japan Taisho Mura here is a tourist destination that exudes the romance of the Taisho period, as if time had stopped. The area is filled with old brick buildings such as banks, post offices, and merchants from that time, creating an atmosphere as if you've slipped back in time.

Experiential Museums that Captivate Both Adults and Children

Japan Taisho Mura is not just a place for sightseeing. The four paid facilities offer experiential exhibits that are sure to captivate visitors.

At the Taisho Romance Hall, you can enjoy a demonstration of a gramophone and indulge in retro games, experiencing the life of the Taisho era. At the Taisho Mura Archives, you can change into costumes from that time and take commemorative photos. You can also immerse yourself in the world of Yumeji Takehisa at the Yumeji Memorial Hall. Furthermore, at the Yokoishi Traditional Crafts Museum, there are programs available for experiencing painting, ensuring that both adults and children can enjoy themselves.

Picturesque Townscape Walks and Delectable Cuisine

The charm of Japan Taisho Mura is not only in its facilities. The atmosphere of tourists walking along the cobblestone streets and the calm townscape that recalls the atmosphere of the time are also highlights. Rows of old folk houses from the Meiji period stand, set against a backdrop of lush greenery, like a painting. It's a treasure trove for shutterbugs.

In between walks, visit the Taisho Romance Tei. On the second floor of this brick building filled with nostalgia, you can indulge in local cuisine. You'll savor exquisite dishes made from local ingredients.

Finally, visit the souvenir shops to find handmade items symbolizing Japan Taisho Mura, such as dolls and items related to Hideyoshi Mitsuhide. It's a journey that invites you to cross time and space, filled with nostalgia and new discoveries.

It is a symbolic building located in a large parking lot in Taisho Village, Japan. The second floor is a restaurant, and the first floor is a souvenir shop. There is also a kimono rental room, where we rented hakama and took a walk around Taisho Village. It was 2000 yen. For 2,000 yen, I was able to take lots of photos in Taisho Village while feeling quite excited. Rental kimono is recommended. Most of the souvenirs are from Mitsuhide Akechi. There are also many local products. I felt that Taisho Village was a hidden gem during Golden Week.

I know the name of Taisho Village, but I don't know what's inside. Arrive using Akechi Railway around 12:00 🚃 Taisho Village in Japan is a tourist destination that consists of an entire town. Let's do well with the small version of Takayama! That's what it felt like. (From a local) Until about 10 years ago, Mie Kotsu was actively offering tours, and the area was crowded even on weekdays. However, in recent years, he has withdrawn from touring. It has become a tourist destination that retains the vestiges of the quiet Taisho era. His hopes for a revival in the taiga drama ``Kirin ga Kuru'' were lost due to the spread of the new coronavirus. It's a long introduction, but I'll write about it here because it was a really fun sightseeing spot that I went to this time 😄 This time I visited here alone on a weekday under a cold sky. Purchase a common ticket for all four museums at the information center next to a nice building that says Taisho Village (100 yen discount if you use the Akechi Railway Free Pass) I immediately followed the staff's guidance to the Taisho Roman Museum. The road along the way has a taste reminiscent of the Taisho era, and is very picturesque. From there, I went around various places and finally bought some souvenirs at Taisho Romantei before heading home. It was fun to go around and learn about the painter Hosui Yamamoto from Akechi Town, Kaimura, and Emperor Taisho. Also, strolling around the town is just fun 🙆🏻 The phonograph and the village chief's explanations were quite popular among those who were relatively well-versed in those days. For this reason, Taisho Village can be said to be an interesting tourist destination that does not make you feel any age barrier. There aren't many people especially on weekdays, so I think it's great for couples who want a quiet date. It's also easy for people like me to enjoy! There is also free parking! Please come to Taisho Village!

There are many places to see, so a tourist map is essential. There are paid buildings such as the Historical Museum, Archives, Taisho Romantic Museum, and Yoko Tsukasa Museum. There are combined tickets available for admission to all four. I went to the museum and the Roman Museum, but I thought it would be good to just go to the museum. The exhibits overlapped. It's going to be exercise anyway. However, although I have taken the trouble to explain the historical background of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, it doesn't really have a Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba feel to it, and I'm more of a fan of ``Haikara-san''. I think it was due to adult circumstances, but I felt it was a waste because I could feel Demon Slayer in some parts of the exhibit. I thought it would be good for Takehisa Yumeji fans. There is a free parking lot 🅿️, but there are few spaces. There is a parking lot in front of the souvenir shop, but it is very limited. We recommend going with sneakers.

I visited Taisho Village. During the Meiji period, it seems to have prospered in an area where sericulture for use in silk textiles was popular. The entire area speaks of better times. A variety of buildings such as banks, post offices, and telecommunications offices are located here. Like Oita Higo-Takada, we live within the same living area, so we need to be considerate of the residents when visiting. I was looking for the gallery of painter Yuji Nakamura in Toki, but it seems it has been demolished. A large painting is displayed in the Taisho Romantei restaurant. There are no pictures, but you can see wonderful paintings in front that look just like photographs.
