CONCEPT
An inn that conveys authentic
Onomichi culture to the present day
Nishiyama Bekkan was an inn located in Onomichi , a town where the mountains meet the sea. The town was once a gathering place of the Murakami Pirates who protected the Seto Inland Sea routes and the shipbuilders who built up Onomichi’s economy. These pirates and shipbuilders boasted a culture and wisdom that rivaled that of the daimyo feudal lords. The historic Nishiyama Bekkan has been revived as Ryokan Onomichi Nishiyama, a traditional ryokan inn where you can experience authentic Onomichi culture.
Inheriting the history of
Nishiyama Bekkan
Opened in 1943, Nishiyama Bekkan was a long-established ryokan that was beloved as a guest house in Onomichi. Inheriting this history, Ryokan Onomichi Nishiyama continues to use not only the building but also the furniture, light fixtures, tea ceremony utensils, hanging scrolls, and tableware. Some items are preserved in their original form, while some are altered for use. But they are all cherished. For example, wood that was once used as tokonoma alcoves has been turned into room keys, and roof tiles have been reborn as design materials for the entrance. We hope that these efforts will help to convey Onomichi culture and connect the skills of Japanese artisans to the future.
