The former castle town became a merchant and craftsman's town.
Original Text
If you think of the white-walled warehouse-style buildings lined up, the cityscape is a mixture of buildings from several eras, such as the townhouse-style buildings on the outer wall of a wooden wall that has passed through years. That was the townscape of Yame Fukushima. Fukushima Castle was built in this area at the end of the 16th century, but it was abolished in about 30 years due to the one-country castle system. However, the townspeople remained as it was, and the formed castle town later prospered as a town of merchants and craftsmen, and the town became the current "Yame Fukushima Townscape" ...
A cityscape where buildings in Edo, Meiji, Taisho and Showa are mixed

The cityscape of Yame Fukushima in the center of Yame City. This town is old and has developed as a castle town in the early Edo period and then as a merchant town. Is that why? I felt that the townhouses in Yame Fukushima were often built in Dozo. And I thought it was unique that not only the buildings of the Edo period but also the buildings of Edo, Meiji, Taisho, and Showa were mixed.
First, I put my car in the parking lot of the Traditional Craft Museum, got a map for tourists at the tourist information center, and walked. If you walk a little north from the tourist guide, it will spread about 500m east and west. There is a really old building inside and a spectacle of the atmosphere is connected.
Every time I go to Yame, I pass through the streets of Yame Fukushima. Machiya are lined up along the highway and it's very nice. It's a popular tourist destination now, but it's not as wide as I expected and it ends in no time.
The town of Yame Fukushima, which is selected as a preservation district for important traditional buildings in the country. There are many old townhouses along the old highway. At the tourist information center, I got a map of walking around the town, and walked around the highlights along the map. There is also an open town house and an exchange hall.

It's not that big.

There's an old town on the road.
