Shunpu Banriso
Shunpu Banriso is a 300-square-meter thatched-roof house relocated from Kita-Kamakura. It was the residence of Kitaoji Rosanjin, a famous Japanese artist who was active from the late 19th to mid-20th century in many fields, including pottery, calligraphy, and cooking.
Some rooms inside the house were personally designed by Rosanjin. The facility also displays furniture made by Rosanjin and some of his favorite personal belongings.
