Museums are places that I absolutely love to visit while traveling, as they normally provide a great deal of local information. Initially when I read the description of this museum it didn’t sound too exciting, nonetheless I decided to make a visit. The description and the museum are totally different…this facility is actually very cool and not as boring as it description makes it out to be! There are great exhibits on forges, weaving, automobiles and even a fun hands-on area. All of the exhibits are well done and very interesting, with real demonstrations. It is definitely worth a visit. During the week it is often filled with schoolchildren, so I advise you to visit early and get a head start on these groups! It is a large facility and comfortable shoes are necessary. It is easy to get there on the subway: from the Sako Station on Meitetsu line, walk 3 minutes, or from Kamejima Station on Higashiyama Subway Line (Exit #2) and walk 10 minutes.
