The [[Shimazu clan]] lords of [[Satsuma han]] maintained five [[daimyo yashiki|mansions]] in [[Edo]]. These were homes for the lords' wives, heirs, other family members, and numerous retainers, as well as housing the lord himself roughly half of the time, whenever he was in attendance in Edo in accordance with his ''[[sankin kotai|sankin kôtai]]'' obligations.
