Troy Spiral (13) Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 For roughly 1,300 years, the descendants of Fujiwara Mahito – all 52 generations of them – have operated the inn, which was founded in 705AD – some 300 years before the Vikings came to America and 225 years before the founding of the kingdom of England. That was the 2nd year of the Keiun era, which led to the hotel’s “Keiunkan” name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
