Discover the unique Niso Udatsu Townscape in Tsurugi, Tokushima, a 10-minute drive from Mima IC. This area showcases rare two-tiered udatsu (firewalls) adorned with decorative patterns, setting it apart from typical Japanese townscapes. Stroll along the former Ichiu Kaido (Sword Mountain Road) to view these distinctive architectural features, especially around the Machinaka Exchange Center. While the udatsu are somewhat scattered, their intricate designs and the area's historical atmosphere offer a glimpse into the prosperous merchant past of the region. Visit during the day to fully appreciate the details of the udatsu and the surrounding traditional buildings. Parking is available at the former Nagai family Shoya residence, near the Michi-no-Eki Sadamitsu Yuyu Kan.
