    The house where the descendants of Musashi now live

    A lovely home but only to be looked at. This is completely fine and acceptable considering people live there but there is of course the part of me that would have loved to actually walk on the land. ...

    As the name suggests, this is the house I spent as a child.

    The chain was chained and I couldn't enter. The original thatched roof was destroyed by fire and was a rebuilt building.

    It was sparse and quiet with tourists.

    Original Text

    There are souvenir shops, Musashi Shrine, Musashi no Sato Olympic Bo, Exchange Hall, Budokan, Kua Garden, etc. near the site of Miyamoto Musashi's birthplace, and it is a tourist destination for Ichinomiyamoto Musashi, but tourists were sparse. Thanks to that, the site of the birthplace where the stream flows was quiet and very calm.

    Birthplace

    Original Text

     The building itself has been rebuilt in the Showa era, and the taste of the birthplace remains. A stream flows by the side and the mountains are close. It's a fun place to imagine where Musashi trained swordplay, and whether it was around here that he was hung by trees for bad reasons. There are Jizo and stone monuments nearby, but this seems to have no connection with Musashi.

    The current building is a relatively new building built in Heisei

    Original Text

    Musashi was born in 1584. Both father and grandfather seemed to have been a martial artist. However, the current building is a relatively new building built in Heisei. It's still like a house where someone lives, and you have to look at it from a distance.
