Lovely enteractive museum. This is one of the very few museum I've been where it is trully immersive. You are free to touch and feel the display and the whole village is done beautiful. High recommend to chat with the super freidly staff that will tell you the about life in Edo era and might let you try on one the of rich lady's kimono in the display house. 👘🎎🏚💕

Definitely worth a visit — especially if it’s raining and/or you’re with kids. It’s a small museum, but very engaging. There are lots of everyday-life details you can spend a long time looking at. One of the best parts is that you can actually step into the exhibits — which makes the whole experience very immersive. The environment changes too: it shifts from day to evening, sometimes it even starts to rain. Animal sounds add an extra layer of realism. One small thing I couldn’t quite figure out: on the upper floors you can see something through the windows, but from the ground level it’s impossible to understand what it is. You can’t go upstairs inside the models, and there’s no gallery or platform to look through the open windows — which feels like a missed opportunity.

SOOOO cute!! I got to learn so much about the Edo period in Japan and the daily life. The colors of the sky changed often and there were even videos of the amazing process!! There were also so many explanation panels and it was English friendly. It did not cost too much!! Please visit the area 🥹 It is so nice to learn about the history here and it is clean and easy to enter! Also, Mame-suke is a very cute cat guide~

A really great experience, very informative and lovely to see the lights change to reflect different parts of the day. Well worth a visit and very inexpensive. You can do it all in half an hour or give yourself a bit more time and read the plaques etc. Comes with an English map, and some good souvenirs on the way out!

Amazing Museum - you can dive into the Edo Period within this realistic Village. But most important: The many volunteers with good English skills - their explanations and sense of History drives this place. Not crowded even during Obon - a hidden gem within Tokyo.
