I did my best but of course apologize if I got anything wrong! I have had soooo much fun researching, exploring, learning about, and building machiya and Japanese architecture in general. The four machiyas are all 1-2 bedrooms, and each has at least one washitsu (aka tatami room) with-fingers crossed-auspiciously arranged tatami…? To make the lot slightly easier to load, the second floor is unfurnished for all but the ikebana shop. And around back, tucked behind the alley, is an adventure gear outfitter with snowboards and skis to get you Mt.
Along the main street you will find a massage studio, ikebana flower shop, and souvenir shop. Each of the machiya is home to a different local business, catering primarily to tourists. At the heart of Senbamachi sits a quaint quartet of machiya-traditional Japanese townhouses-that continue to serve their long-standing function of housing small retail shops in the front and family homes in the back and upstairs.
