A Tour of Matsushima, One of Japan's Three Scenic Views: The Old Kamei Residence in Miyagi Prefecture.

The Old Kamei Residence is located at the foot of the path leading to Shiogama Shrine, about a 5-10 minute walk from Hon-Shiogama Station. This small house was built by a maritime merchant in the early 20th century, using a combination of Japanese and Western architectural styles. However, for visitors from Hong Kong, the Japanese style of both the interior and exterior is very apparent, unlike the distinctly Western-style buildings in places like Moji Port.
