Sleepover/midnight stay
Todomari and Nakadomari are fishing villages located in the middle of the Funakoshi Peninsula, which juts out into the Uwa Sea in western Shikoku, where a ria coastline has developed, and once prospered by fishing for sardines and bonito. The Todomari and Nakadomari villages are located on the northern slope, facing the Uwa Sea to the north and with a steep mountain in the background.
Around the end of the Edo period, due to the population increase in Nakadomari village, a relocation plan centered on the second and third sons (branch family policy) was proposed, and it was decided to build the Todomari village in the neighboring valley. It is said that its current form was almost completed around 1890. The method of creating land divided by stone walls and slopes was learned from the Nakadomari village, which was the origin of the village, and the town was laid out in a relatively orderly manner on the east and west slopes, with the main vertical path along the river as the coordinate axis. The allocation has been made. The individual lots have relatively large widths and depths for a dense fishing village, and the residential lots are built with extremely high stone walls. Furthermore, in order to prevent the harsh sea breeze blowing in from the sea, the upper part of the stone wall was piled up even higher, and buildings were placed around the courtyard on the sea or valley side, and the garden was open to the mountain side to the south. It has become. Therefore, building layouts such as L-shape, U-shape, and V-shape can be seen.
Nakadomari is a village that became the prototype for sodomari, and although it shares characteristics such as residential areas and building layouts built with stone walls, and windows facing the stone wall that are cut out and called ``distant viewing windows''. There is no regularity in the alignment of roads or the layout of buildings, giving the impression of a spontaneous fishing village.
