In 1923, after the Great Kanto Earthquake, Zenshiro Yasuda, the son-in-law of Zenjiro Yasuda, the founder of the former Yasuda Zaibatsu, purchased the house, and his eldest son, Kusuo, inherited it in 1937. Although built in the Japanese style, the interior is characterized by a blend of Japanese and Western styles, including a Western-style reception room. Except for the kitchen, the rest of the house remains almost as it was when it was built, and furniture used by the Fujita and Yasuda families can be seen. Another highlight is the garden, which was created with an emphasis on the view from inside the residence.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"js-way\"><span class=\"ja\"><span>Spot Outline<\/span><\/span><span class=\"en\">Outline<\/span><\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>address (e.g. of house)<\/th>\n<td>\n5-20-18 Sendagi, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Access<\/th>\n<td>\nApproximately 7 minutes walk from Sendagi Subway Station<\/p>\n<div class=\"elem-sec_01 mrg-style_21\"><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">phone<\/th>\n<td><a class=\"link-style_02\" href=\"tel:03-3822-2699\">03-3822-2699<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Business Hours<\/th>\n<td>\nWednesday and Saturday 10:30-16:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">regular closing day<\/th>\n<td>\nMonday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday, closed in summer and winter<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">External Links<\/th>\n<td>\n<p><a class=\"link-style_03\" href=\"http:\/\/www.national-trust.or.jp\/protection\/index.php?c=protection_view&#038;pk=1491201890\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Official Web Site<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">completion of construction<\/th>\n<td>\n1918 (Taisho 8)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"constructionUeno, Yanaka, Nippori Former Kusuo Yasuda Residence Garden (Sendagi, Tokyo)\uff08Former Yasuda Residence) a blending of Japanese and Western stylesYasuda Zaibatsugarden This mansion with garden was built around 1919 (Taisho 8) by businessman Fujita Kozaburo, the founder of Toshimaen, an amusement park that regrettably closed in 2020.
