How about taking your photos at the Former Furukawa Residence, a Western-style building with history dating back to the Taisho era?

At the Former Furukawa Residence, which is renowned for its architecture, you can achieve a classical, elegant photoshoot full of gravitas.
Each room has its own unique features, offering a wide variety of photo styles.
This location is perfect for both Western-style and traditional Japanese attire, making it popular with a broad range of couples ♡
