One of the most elegant Japanese houses opened to public is the Chofu Mori Residence in Shimonoseki, an old residence of the Mori family, one of the most important families in the history of Japan.

Built in 1903, the estate is a masterpiece of Japanese traditional architecture, both in terms of exterior design and elements of interior layout. A house worthy of an emperor, because even the Emperor Meiji was accommodated for a while in one of its rooms...
