This “Kaiko-sha” was built in 1903 and used by Imperial Army officers.  The wooden building   is designated as an important cultural asset.   

This room in kaiko-sha was used by the Emperor Taisho and later by the Emperor Showa in 1922 when he was a crown prince.   

 

This room was also used by the Emperor Showa (the Crown Prince in those days) when the Imperial Army held a military exercise in Kagawa in 1922.
