Tsuyazaki Sengen

Tsuyazaki Sengen

Long ago, this place flourished as a port for transporting salt. It was so crowded that people said it felt like there were a thousand houses there, so it was called “Tsuyazaki Sengen (a thousand houses)”.
The houses were destroyed many times due to repeated fires since the Edo era (1603-1868), but the current townscape still retains the atmosphere of the old days.
The place that best symbolizes this area is the “Tsuyazaki Sengen Folk Museum, Indigo House”. This building that was formerly a dye store built in 1901 is now used as a gallery.
