Mimitsu
Let’s meet the old days of Japan. The area is designated a National Important Preservation
District for Groups of Historic buildings, and there remain much of the atmosphere of the 19th
century, including buildings of old times, earthen walls, and stone pavements.
According to the ancient myths set down in Japan’s oldest books, Kojiki and Nihongi, Mimitsu
is where the mythical first emperor of Japan, Jimmu, built a fleet and set sail to conquer
central Japan and set up the Yamato Dynasty.
