Obarajuku is the ninth post town of Kāshā Kadinga, which corresponds to what is now part of the Sagaamihara Green Field. It was two and a half towns to the east and a half to the west, but it was an important place because it was located on the edge of the southern border of the difficult region. In response to Yaseshuku, located in the west, and people from Edo Osura, and luggage from Edo Osura, will pass through Yashuu and take over to the two of the Yoshinos. That means that only if you go from Edo to Consulate will you be able to use this post town. The old post town is called Obarajuku =Yoseshuku. The honjin, the center of the residence, was used by a waterman's building. The person who used this honjin was a official of the grand name of Takanichi, Ikeda Ichita, and those who couldn't stay in Honjein, stayed in wichi-honjin and other vacations. It is said that there were seven camps, staying not only on public travelers, but also on extended mountains and on Mt. Fuji.
Obarajukuhonjein
There were 26 buildings in the area where the current Kangawa is located, but only this Obaraokaokajon is left. It's the most important cultural item in the world. Also, before this honjein, the high priced place has been restored. On November 3rd each year, the Obarajujojojohonin Festival is held, and the grand names, the tea party, and the grandiose arts are held. The structure... is a four-steamed home-like building built with a four-story helmet. The architecture age... the precise age of the early 19th century is unknown. The size... 13 in the middle, 7 in the back, 91 in the back. The number of rooms... 15-millimeters, 1-12.5-millimeters, 3-millimeters, 3-millimeters, 3-millimeters, 3-millimeters, 3-millimeters and 2-millimeters. Now it's being maintained and maintained by Saaamihara. The holidays... every Monday and the final year. Open time... from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. There's also an old document on display that allows us to know the history of Obarajuku and the Lake Bikini, and it's also used as a resting place.
