03. Touring Tondabayashi

This is an old building that has been restored in Osaka. Unfortunately a lot of these places have been lost due to war, earthquakes and development. The building and gardens are as they would have been in the 1500's and I did bump my head here several times not paying attention! The building belonged to the Sugiyama family and was completed in the 1700's. The family controlled quite a bit through it's Sake production
