MieArchitectureMatsusaka
Matsusaka Merchant House
A cotton merchant's home town house: plain to the street, lavish within - the merchant code in built form.
MieMuseumsMatsusaka
Matsuura Takeshiro Memorial Museum
The man who walked Ezo six times and proposed the name Hokkaido; he built a one-mat study from old timbers gathered nationwide.
MieMuseumsIga
Iga Ninja Museum
A relocated farmhouse full of mechanisms - revolving walls and floor caches - shown as carpentry, not legend.
MieArchitectureIga
Iga Ueno Castle
Its stone wall rises thirty metres straight from the moat, among the highest in Japan.
MieMuseumsToba
Toba Sea-Folk Museum
The building that made Hiroshi Naito's name: timber-framed storehouses standing as strongly as what they hold.
MieMuseumsMeiwa
Saiku Historical Museum
The palace of the unmarried imperial princess sent to serve at Ise; excavation confirmed its grid plan.
MieArchitectureOwase
Kumano Kodo Iseji
Stone paving laid so the rain could not wash the path away - a structure built for walking that became the landscape.
MieContemporary ArtKumano
Hana no Iwaya
No building at all: a 45-metre rock is the deity, and twice a year a rope is strung from its summit.
Tsu
Pseudo-Western Buildings of Tsu
As the provincial capital, Tsu keeps Meiji public buildings in which local carpenters read Western style their own way.
MieArchitectureIse
Okage Yokocho
A street rebuilt in the gable-fronted form typical of Ise, showing how a pilgrimage town was shaped.
MieArchitectureKuwana
Tado Taisha
Halls set along a mountain stream, with a rite in which horses charge straight up an earth bank.
Owase
Owase Cypress Forestry
Cypress grown in one of Japan's wettest places; dense planting and thinning rule the slopes into pattern.
Iga
Iga Ueno Castle Town
Streets deliberately bent at right angles for defence, the layout still as Todo Takatora planned it.
Kuwana
Ring Levees of Kuwana
Whole villages ringed by their own levees, each homestead keeping a stone-raised refuge building against flood.
MieArchitectureYokkaichi
Industrial Landscape of Yokkaichi
A petrochemical complex that at night becomes an assembly of light - a landscape that also carries a pollution history.
Shima
Fishing Villages of Shima
Stone piled into the narrow inlets to make level ground, and houses set along it - a village shaped by terrain.
