    About 15 minutes walk from Minamata Station. Tokutomi Soho (real name: Ichiro) is a thinker from the Meiji to Showa. Tokutomi Roka (real name: Kenjiro) is Soho's younger brother and novelist. The Soho and Luhua brothers spent their childhood in this house (built in 1790). When I visited, the museum was closed due to the restoration of the pillars damaged by white ants.

    Soho, the birthplace of Asahi. Soho is a journalist representing Japan in the Meiji 〜 Showa era. My younger brother Asahi is a Meiji 〜 Taisho literary master. I wanted to touch more works.

    The birthplace of literary masters as Hiro 々

    It takes 1 ~ 2 minutes by car from National Highway No. 3 (Rokutsukaku). It's easy to understand because there is a guide sign, but you need to be careful not to pass by because you can't find a sign in the birthplace itself. The birthplace is a large white-walled building that makes you feel the history, and you can visit it for free. Each room is large with 15 tatami mats and 12 tatami mats, and there are many. As expected, it is a mansion of literary masters. Many books of Sufeng are on display, there is a warehouse in the distance, and a small garden in the back. This wonderful ...

    We recommend that you take a tour while listening to the explanation of the staff. Even if you look at the building, it will be just a tour of an old folk house. Please explain in great detail with abundant knowledge.

    Born of journalists in the early Showa period

    Original Text

    It is the birthplace of Soho Tokutomi, a journalist who presided over the Komin Shimbun. It's old, but it's well maintained and I felt the personality. This is a spot that history lovers should visit once.
