Nioza Historical Road

Nioza Historical Road


Nioza is the old district of the former castle town of Usuki in Oita. One of the narrow lanes is stone paved and winds around a slope.


Sometimes called a samurai district, there are a few samurai homes, but also a lot of temples and merchant quarters.


One of the former temples has been converted into a "rest area" for visitors and puts on seasonal displays. When I as there it was dolls.


If you are in Usuki it is certainly worth a look see, but not worth making a special journey.
