Shizutani School - Ibara

Where you can see the 18th century is the Japanese landscape architecture. which is not famous at all.

Great historical location. we had a traditional Japanese lection in the old classroom. it was a great and humiliating experience that followed the traces of those who started the public school system in japan.

Very nice place to visit in autumn with red Chinese peach trees.

Built in 1670, this was the first school for commoners in Japan. Beautifully maintained buildings and grounds with a unique round top stone wall around it.

10 Nov 2019, this is still too early for the full autumn color for maple leaves, but the 2 pistachio trees, symbolic of this place is already quite bright. The best time will be around 17 to End Nov.
