If
you
are
interested
not
only
in
the
Zero
Fighter,
but
also
in
the
Japanese
aircraft
industry,
and
if
you
are
interested
in
architecture,
you
should
definitely
go
and
see
it!
This
is
a
mansion
built
by
Chikuhei
Nakajima,
the
founder
of
Nakajima
Aircraft,
for
his
parents!
(His
own
room
is
also
on
the
2nd
floor.)
I'm
sure
it's
a
building
from
the
early
Showa
era,
but
there
is
a
driveway.
There
is
an
entrance,
a
fireplace
and
a
fake
electric
stove,
and
the
most
surprising
thing
is
a
Western-style
flush
toilet.
(I
think
it
was
built
in
1930?)
You
can
only
see
a
part
of
it,
but
it's
free,
so
I
highly
recommend
it!
I
think
it
will
be
renovated
someday,
but
I
think
it
is
very
valuable
to
see
it
in
its
current
state.
I
heard
from
an
official
from
Ota
City
that
the
building
was
requisitioned
by
the
American
military
after
the
defeat
in
World
War
II,
and
that
the
floor
was
badly
damaged
because
American
soldiers
walked
on
it
in
their
shoes.
Although
American
soldiers
were
from
a
victorious
country,
they
also
committed
sins.
(Maybe
this
is
what
it
means
to
lose
a
war...)
However,
since
the
construction
technology
was
good,
I
didn't
feel
it
caused
much
damage.
In
the
past,
he
may
have
proudly
viewed
the
aircraft
he
built
in
his
factory
from
this
house.
(The
Tone
River
flows
in
front
of
this
mansion,
and
apparently
there
was
an
airfield
between
it
and
the
riverbed.)
If
Nakajima
Aircraft
still
existed
today,
what
kind
of
passenger
aircraft
would
have
been
created?
The
wind
rises...
By
the
way,
if
you
use
Carrozzeria's
car
navigation
system,
it
will
display
"Nakajima
House".
