This is a renowned tourist destination in Fushimi, Kyoto, where the hero of the late Edo period, Sakamoto Ryoma, was attacked, leading to the infamous “Teradaya Disturbance.” The site of his former residence now features a statue of Ryoma and a stone monument honoring the nine heroes of the Satsuma clan. Adjacent is the “Ryokan Teradaya” inn, a reconstruction of the original Teradaya inn from the time of the incident, offering a glimpse into the historical turmoil of Kyoto at the end of the Edo period.
