Obie Kominka
Tamba City, Hyogo Pref.
In the western Tamba region of Hyogo Prefecture stands a beautifully preserved kominka beneath open blue skies. Its distinctive irimoya-style thatched roof, characteristic of the region, has been carefully maintained, evoking a sense of stepping back to a time before the 19th century. Recent renovations prioritized preserving its historic character, including the rare and costly replacement of the thatched roof. Now the only remaining thatched farmhouse in its historic village, it is a remarkable find for enthusiasts of traditional architecture. We hope the property will be appreciated and cared for by residents who understand the cultural value of traditional Japanese homes. Nearby nature, local cuisine, and historic sites such as the famed Takeda Castle ruins enrich the lifestyle.
