ーProduct Featuresー
- Xianyan Garden
Built in 1658 by Mitsuhisa, the 19th generation of the Shimazu family, this
garden overlooks Sakurajima and is one of the representative scenery of
Kagoshima Prefecture. In the 15,000-square-meter park, filled with colorful
flowers of all seasons, there are the Shokoshukan and the Imperial Palace that
display relevant materials and cultural heritage of the Shimazu family of the
Satsuma Domain. As the place that led Japan's modernization, this area was
listed as a World Cultural Heritage in 2015.
- Shanggu Collection Hall
Saibin, the 28th generation of the Shimadzu family, believed that Japan must
become a strong and wealthy country that is not inferior to foreign countries,
so he built a modern factory complex called "Shuikan" in the seaside area near
the palace and gardens. He believed that Japan needed to modernize if it
wanted to be independent, so he focused on projects directly related to
military strength such as iron smelting and shipbuilding, and actively
introduced Western technology. The name of the factory group including
reverberatory furnaces, smelting furnaces, glass factories, textile factories,
steam locomotive factories, etc. is "Shuikan". The project as a whole is
called the "Integrated Pavilion Project". Japan's oldest existing "Western-
style factory" in the factory complex has become the current "Shangko
Shushuikan Main Building" and functions as a valuable museum that can
understand the changes in Japan's modernization.
- Imperial Palace
The Shimazu clan master absorbed Western culture from Kagoshima, and the
palace where he lived served as a guest house for domestic and foreign guests
from the late Edo period to after the Meiji Restoration. This is a precious
building. Its architecture, design, and furniture as a samurai house allow you
to feel the atmosphere and life of the feudal lords in each period.
