Urayasu City Folk Museum
Local history museum
👍👍 It is a free museum to visit. They have English guide pamphlet, too, to help you understand the exhibition.

Hirayu Folk Museum
Local history museum
👍👍 平湯ICの近くにある源泉かけ流しの温泉施設です。 駐車場が5､6台停めれるスペースと、すぐ側に足湯、無料休憩所があります。 温泉から硫黄の臭いがしますので、苦手な方はご留意ください。 又、湯質は濁りがあり、湯度も高めかと思います。 熱い場合は、露天風呂の脇にある加水用のホースで調整するようです。 身体や頭を...

👍👍 誰が来ても楽しめると思います。早く回れば20〜30分、ゆっくり勉強しながらだと1〜2時間はかかります。夏休みなのか家族連れも多かったです。それにしても昔の日本って恐いですね〜。網走来るならおすすめスポットです！

Kitakyūshū Mizukankyōkan
Aquarium
👍👍 無料なのに、なかなか(感心)の淡水魚水族館です。 ”河川観察窓”という川の中を見られる窓があってジーッと水中を見ていると、川の水が上下2層になっていて、下の層にだけお魚が泳いでいたのが興味深い。 また、紫川の河川整備の歴史も知ることができます✴️ デートや、お子様連れにもどっちもオススメ

Narita Airport and Community Historical Museum
Local history museum
👍👍 Actually, it is still an ongoing problem. It is quietly located south of Runway A at Narita Airport, next to the Museum of Aeronautical Sciences (Sky Expo). Many people stop by at the Sky Expo, which is crowded with families, but it's ridiculous! Due to corona countermeasures, Sorahiro has cancel...

旧本多忠次邸
Historical landmark
👍👍 A Western-style building built by the descendants of Honda Tadakatsu in the early Showa era It seems to have been relocated from Setagaya. The elements of Spanish are incorporated, and the Japanese-Western eclecticism that can be seen everywhere is wonderful.

👍👍 ふたりぼっちパスポートを使って、帯広駅からのバスで行きました。 精糖会社である日甜の資料館で、砂糖の精製方法や日本における精糖産業の成り立ちが学べます。官営で始まり失敗した精糖産業を、なぜ日甜が成功させることができたのか、という話は非常に勉強になりました。 タイミングが合えば、館長さんが予定滞在時間...

大淀川学習館
Museum
👍 日曜日の午前中に一人で訪問しました。もう初老なので一度だけのつもりで来ました。普段はこう言う場所は来る理由も無く、子供も成人なので私の興味だけが来た理由です。まず入場料が無料なのは驚きました。色々な維持費は税金からだと思いますが、せっかくの施設ですので何度も訪れたくなりました。内部は展示や標本スペー...

Hida Takayama Activity and Exchange Hall
Local history museum
👍 If my memory is correct, I think that it is a museum built by renovating the site of a sake brewery. The price was free for citizens, but it seems that it is open for free during the corona misfortune. The theme was divided into sections, and the exhibition room, which was converted from a storehou...
