The Aizu Bukeyashiki - Samurai Residence is a museum full of Aizu history. The grounds are larger than expected, and the exhibits are quite extensive. At the bus stop by Aizuwakamatsu JR Station, you can buy a one-day bus pass for JPY 2,000 that includes admission to three attractions: Tsuruga Castle, the Samurai Residence, and Sazaedo. You can also travel around the loop clockwise or counterclockwise, making it easy to plan your day. I recommend allowing about an hour and a half to explore the Samurai Residence at a leisurely pace. There is no shade at the bus stop in summer, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun before heading out!

It’s absolutely worth coming during cherry blossom season. The classic samurai residence buildings with the cherry trees in full bloom feel so quintessentially Japanese, and every photo turns out great.
The lunch set meal was just the right portion, and I got to try local Aizu cuisine.

You can really get a detailed look at the lifestyle of Japanese samurai here. It's unique and definitely worth a visit.
