「福柳庵」 福岡県

北九州市戸畑区の山間の住宅地にある和風レストラン。バブル時代に建てられた数寄屋建築と庭園が楽しめる。庭園は傾斜地をうまく活かして地割され上段に茶室を兼ねた離れ屋と平庭があり下段には主屋と小さな池や遣水が流れ、上下段のあいだの斜面を様々な形に刈り込まれた皐月が埋め尽くしそのなかに大小の景石や枯滝石組などが織り込まれ変化に飛んだ景観となっている。石段や飛び石をたどり実際に庭を散策できるのも嬉しい。また建築も見どころが多く２０ｍ以上の長さを誇る磨き丸太の梁や網代天井や火灯窓など贅を凝らした格式高い数寄屋建築となっている。またなかなか見ることができないガラス戸で覆われた近代的な立礼席の茶室などもある。

"Fukuryuan" Fukuoka Prefecture

A Japanese-style restaurant located in a residential area in the mountains of Tobata Ward, Kitakyushu City. You can enjoy authentic sukiya architecture and gardens built half a century ago.

The garden is designed to make good use of the slope, with a small house that doubles as a teahouse and a flat garden on the upper level, and the main house on the lower level. In the narrow space next to it is a small pond and stream, and white sand is spread around the stepping stones along the stream.

The slope between the upper and lower gardens is filled with Satsuki azaleas trimmed into various shapes, and among them are large and small garden stones and stonework of a dry waterfall, creating a diverse landscape.

It is a pleasure to be able to actually stroll through the garden by following the stone steps and stepping stones.

The architecture is also worth seeing, with lavish and prestigious Sukiya architecture, including Migakimaruta cedar beams over 20 meters long, Ajiro ceilings, and Ktoh windows. There is also the rare Ryureiseki tea room, where tea ceremonies are held with chairs and tables covered with glass doors.
