Former Yoshida-ya sake store

Yoshida-ya is an old sake store, originally built in 1910. Today, it is an annex of the Shitamachi museum in Ueno, Tokyo. It can be visited in Ueno-sakuragi, a neighborhood nearby the JR Yamanote line Uguisudani Station.

This beautiful building is a rare survivor in Tokyo, representative for the sake stores at the end of the Edo period and beginning of the Meiji period.
