Sobre este lugar: Calle Nakamachi (Matsumoto)
La calle Nakamachi es un distrito histórico de almacenes «kura» en la antigua ciudad-castillo de Matsumoto. Muros blancos con baldosas «namako» negras conservan el ambiente de finales de Edo y Meiji. Cafés, talleres y galerías habitan los kura renovados: distrito vivo y turístico ideal para pasear y fotografiar.
Aspectos destacados
- White-Plaster, Black-Namako Kura — about 20 of them; the late-Edo to Meiji-era fireproof architecture creates an orderly procession of storehouses
- Nakamachi Kurashic-kan — a Meiji-era kura converted into a tourist office and museum, free interior tours
- Kura Cafés and Craft Shops — set in renovated storehouses serving coffee, glass, woodwork, and Matsumoto folk crafts
- Evening Streetlights with Kura — warm lighting bathes the kura in gold, with a nostalgic atmosphere
- Stone Paving in Rain — wet stones reflect the kura walls, a special early-morning subject when the streets are empty
