The charm of Aonagi is that it is a “work of art” that was built and designed by Ando in a boutique resort area on a small hill overlooking the Seto Inland Sea.
The building was originally partly opened to the public as a museum, but was renovated and reborn as a special hotel.
By stripping away all the ornate decorations, the hotel hopes to bring you closer to the richness of nature that has been there since ancient times, so that you can feel it firsthand.
Even if you are not an architecture fan, you will be thrilled to be surrounded by the beauty of the architecture, which is so simple that it becomes more and more attractive the longer you stay.
