*Omizuya (Water House)

There are three pillars on the each corner. Twelve pillars have been made of granite. Roof is copper-tiled, Kiritsuma style, and arched eaves. Also, metal fittings are transparent carving. A dragon is painted on the ceiling, with Indian ink. Size of the dragon is 2m and 50cm, and it wears the cloud. That dragon is reflected on the water of 120cm wide basin. Therefore, it also is called "Mizukagamino-ryu" (Dragon in the water mirror.)



Twelve granite pillars support the Omizuya (Water House).
