Admission
is
free.
The
museum
is
generally
not
open
on
Saturdays
and
Sundays,
so
it's
difficult
to
get
to.
Only
the
entrance
area
on
the
1st
floor
is
on
display.
There
is
no
attached
cafe,
but
coffee
and
other
items
are
sold
for
300
yen.
However,
there
is
no
table
so
it
will
be
a
bench.
(Behind
the
bench
is
a
panel
display,
so
there
is
no
dedicated
space
itself.)
From
the
name
of
the
Pearl
Museum,
it
seems
that
jewelry
made
with
various
pearls
will
be
exhibited,
but
although
there
are
some
modern
art-like
crafts,
the
exhibition
is
less
focused
on
how
pearls
are
made
and
the
various
types
of
pearls.
I
know
the
types.
Historically,
Kobe
did
not
culture
pearls
in
Kobe
itself,
but
rather
had
a
history
of
trading
pearls.
We
also
introduce
its
history.
By
the
way,
I
was
only
able
to
go
on
Saturdays
and
Sundays
because
it
was
closed
at
the
end
of
March
2023,
so
I
was
finally
able
to
go
there.
Personally,
I
think
the
Japan
Pearl
Museum
building
is
a
very
nice
piece
of
architecture,
but
as
a
museum,
I
felt
it
was
just
a
free
exhibition
corner.
In
addition,
the
Japan
Pearl
Museum
offers
guided
tours,
which
seem
to
be
highly
satisfying
for
architecture
enthusiasts.
