Historic Japanese House Tour

The 320-year-old Japanese Heritage Shōya House is almost ready for visitors! 🏯 Join us for a behind-the-scenes video series with our botanical curator Robert to learn how this magistrate’s (shōya) house would have served as the center of village life. The Japanese Heritage Shōya House will open to the public on Oct. 21, with visiting hours from noon to 4 p.m. Visitors will be able to walk through a portion of the historic home and view interior rooms from designated pathways.
