The records and the description clarified the existence of the previously unknown villa of a German diplomat Karl-Georg von Treutler. Thus, the unique spatial characteristics of Chuzenji area was identified during the nascent period.   NOSE Motoko, TESHIMA Junichi   Collaboration   Tourism Studies, Special Issue   Japan Institure of Tourism Researh   33,pp.163   2021/12
