It is said to have been built as a temporary place for Emperor Meiji to stay, so it is said to have been built ornately with many decorations and sculptures. The exterior has a Western-style design, and the breeze you feel from the terrace on the second floor of the building is very pleasant. It is located within the grounds of Matsue Castle, so why not take a stroll around Matsue Castle as well? *Information as of August 2024. #Furitabi
