1/6
History and drama as a port waiting for the tide!
The place where Sakamoto Ryoma and the Kishu Domain actually held talks during the “Iroha Maru Incident.”
Taichoro was built around 1690 about 320 years ago as the kyakuden (guest hall) of Fukuzenji, a temple of the Shingon sect.
From the tatami room, you can enjoy a wonderful view of Tomonoura, where Sensuijima and Bentenjima float in the calm Seto Inland Sea. During the Edo period, Taichoro was used as a guest house for the Chosen Tsushinshi, and it was also a place of exchange with Japanese Chinese scholars and calligraphers.
In 1711, the Joseon Diplomat (Li Bangyan) praised the view of this room as “the most beautiful scenic spot east of Joseon.”
You can see the beautiful scenery that has never changed since the Edo period, which fascinated many people.
