Former Residence of the Mori Family

Overview

Explore the Former Residence of the Mori Family in Hofu, Yamaguchi, a magnificent building showcasing architectural techniques from the Meiji and Taisho periods. Once home to the Mori family, this grand residence now serves as a museum displaying the family's treasures, including national treasures. Stroll through the expansive grounds and admire the blend of traditional Japanese design with modern influences. Don't miss the special National Treasure Exhibition in November, featuring masterpieces like Sesshu's "Four Seasons Landscape." Allow ample time to explore both the house and the gardens. A combined ticket for the residence and Mori Garden is recommended for the best value.
