This Old House :: Beautiful Japan #50

I dwell in a lonely house I know
That vanished many a summer ago

Wow, 50 Beautiful Japan photos! Incredible. Hope you guys have enjoyed the ride.

For photo number 50, I thought we'd turn back the clock. Back... to the good old days! This is how the inside of a typical Japanese house looked several decades ago. This recreation is in a small museum in Okazaki, and the mirror tells that secret.

Interestingly enough, besides a few outdated items (the icebox, the stove, laundry tub, etc), this doesn’t look all that dissimilar to some of the older houses that I’ve been in. My in-laws' house doesn't look all that different.


Do you want to use this photo in one of your projects? You can! See here for details.
