The Arita Uchiyama Area has been selected as one of the conservation areas for historically important buildings. Though most of it were burnt down by a big fire of 1828, the area once developed with Arita Pottery and was called “a thousand houses of Arita.” Many types of buildings like Japanese traditional town house ‘Machiya’ or old western style residences from each historical period such as Edo, Meiji, Taisho and Showa stand together in the area.
