Shoin Yoshida is famous for the producer of "Shokasonjuku Academy" which have gained the status of UNESCO World Heritage as one of "Sites of Japan's Meiji Industrial Revolution" in 2015. His students played leading role of Meiji Restoration in 1867, even though he was excuted in 1859.
The birthplace of Shoin is located at top of the hill where is a very scenic place, and you can see the whole town of Hagi city from there. It also means that he was not the upper class because his house was very far from Hagi Castle.
His birth house was already lost and you can see only the base of the house. Surprisingly, the house was very small. You can imagine how poor his family was in his childhood.
Later, his family moved to the next of "Shokasonjuku Academy" where is downhill, but still far from the Castle.
I think Shoin was great because he studied hard, taught many talented students and produced the revolution, even though he was not wealthy.
If you have interest in Japanese history, I recommend you to go there.
