Takehara City, located along the Seto Inland Sea in Hiroshima Prefecture, is a charming town often referred to as "Little Kyoto of Aki." The "Takehara Historic District," lined with traditional architecture from the Edo period, offers a serene space where history and culture come alive.
With its white-walled storehouses, lattice-doored townhouses, and stone-paved streets, every corner of this area feels like a picturesque scene from the past, giving visitors the sensation of stepping back in time. Designated as an Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings, it is also known as a filming location for movies and TV dramas.
