Former residence of Saigo Nanshu

When Saigo Takamori went to Edo, the Saigo family fell into poverty and sold their house in Kajiyacho and moved to a part of the current Chuocho/Kyoken Park. In 1865, Ryoma Sakamoto stayed here for one night. There is an anecdote that Ryoma asked his wife, Ito, if he could borrow her loincloth.
