――Since the Meiji era, it is a wooden building called [pseudo-Western style architecture] that has appeared in various parts of the country, and it is often found in highly public buildings such as government offices, police, schools, and hospitals. The entrance is located in front of the building, and it features a symmetrical appearance. Depending on the scale and use of the facility, some buildings had different lengths and floors on the left and right. In the front part, there were many horse-drawn carriages called [carriage] and roofs for getting on and off cars, and many had balconies on the second floor. Although there is no gorgeous decoration because it is a style often used for buildings such as government offices, its stance was proud as a landmark of the city. Although the number of facilities used for the original purpose of construction has decreased, many similar buildings can still be seen in various places.
