This 1890s building next door to Yoshijima Heritage House showcases the striking craftsmanship of traditional Takayama carpenters. The heavy timber framework and meticulous joinery are as impressive as the folk art collection inside. Together with its neighbour, these two houses tell the story of Hida craftsmanship that made Takayama's carpenters famous throughout Japan.
