Miyamoto Musashi Budokan

The Miyamoto Musashi Budokan (a budōkan is a dōjō where budō is practiced, the word kan means "house") built in the province of Mimasaka in Ōhara-Cho, the birthplace of Miyamoto Musashi (March 12, 1584, Ōhara-Chō - May 19, 1645) was inaugurated on May 20, 2000 for the anniversary of his death. This budokan is dedicated to the official martial arts of Japan. It brings together all the saber and kendo traditional schools. The inauguration took place in the presence of many Japanese officials including Sensei Tadashi Chihara, guarantor and tenth of the line of Miyamoto Musashi (who attended the building’s inauguration); the mayor of Ōhara-Cho, Fukuda Yoshiaki; Élisabeth Lamure, mayor of Gleizé; and several saber and kendo schools representative of traditional and contemporary Japan.
