Fukue Samurai Mansion Furusato MuseumA Stroll Through History: The Samurai Residence Street Located just a short walk from Fukue Castle, this street was once home to the domain's high-ranking samurai. The area's most striking feature is the unique "Kobore-ishi" (spilling stone) walls, where round stones are piled loosely on top of the main walls. It is said that these stones served as a defense mechanism, designed to collapse and make noise if an intruder tried to climb over. The contrast between the mossy stone walls, black wooden fences, and lush greenery creates a serene, nostalgic atmosphere, making you feel as if you have traveled back to the Edo period.
