Nice little samurai house to explore. You can wander the gardens and go inside the rooms. There isn’t much furniture, but you can still get a feel for how the samurai lived long ago. Like many sites in Matsue, the entry fee is discounted for foreigners as of December 2019. Make sure to go up the hill in the garden to find a small building housing festival drums. You can press a button to listen to the history of the festival and hear a recording of the drums.

A former samurai house with a nice garden. See the living arrangements of the Samurai and his household. Friendly staff, very nicely kept place with helpful signs explaining each room and its uses. Not a large place and requires removal of your shoes when entering the house itself. An interesting cultural history experience.

Beautiful Japanese architecture and interesting history. Easy walk from the castle. English signs and pamphlet. Entrance takes credit card but gift shop is yen only.

Just a few old traditional houses associated with samurai. Unless you are keen on their lifestyle and history, can give this place a miss.
