Modern Stone Circle / Monolith in Kyūshū

Buke Yashiki means Samurai residences. Most of the Samurai houses in Chiran town have superb dry landscape gardens almost comparable to those of the zen temples in Kyōto. 7 of these gardens are open to public. The main street of the Samurai residencial ares seems like those of Okinawan islands with whom Chiran and its goverment Satsuma cran traded.
Adimission 500 Japanese yen (valid for all 7 gardens). Open 9:00-17:00 throughout the year.
