    The former Chiba family residence is a place that served as an important post for the inn station in Kaita, on the early modern Sanyo Road (Saigoku Kaido).

    The tatami room built in 1774 conveys the remnants of the hospitality space with a sense of unity at the beginning of the building, along with the attached buildings and fountain gardens built at the same time.

    In 1991, the shoin became a Hiroshima prefectural important cultural property, and the spring garden was designated as a place of scenic beauty in Hiroshima prefecture.
