the birthplace of the legendary samurai

Step back into 1863 at Yagi House, the birthplace of the legendary Shinsengumi samurai. 🗡️✨

This traditional house witnessed the rise of the Shinsengumi and the brutal assassination of its first leader, Serizawa Kamo. You can still see the original sword scars on the wooden frames!

Today, it’s a peaceful spot where the descendants of the Yagi family serve artisan Wagashi and Matcha. A perfect blend of samurai history and Kyoto’s tea culture. 🍵
