Area Map

In the Edo Period, Imari town had flourished by trading of pottery and merchants had shipped products to Osaka and Edo. The biggest trader at that time was the Otsuka family. The Otsuka's residence was built in 1825 and now bequeathed to Imari city. After the restoration, the residence has been open to the public since 1991. The building is built for Unagino Nedoko, or eels’ sleeping room, the entrance is 5.519 m width, the depth is 14.825 m, a long-narrow shape and extended in 4 directions, north to south, and east to west. The tiled roof is decorated with gables, and the fire-proofed white walls are forming the exterior. This imposing structure exudes the air of authority of a big merchant.
