Samurai Theater Tokyo

Martial arts school

👍👍 Me and my husband booked a samurai show which was about an hour long. The staff was very friendly and we were the center of attention due to the fact that we were the only customers. Short presentation and then we got to participate in mock fight scenes. We were given hot tea and 2 small local snack...

TOKYO SAMURAI NINJA MUSEUM

Bukkyonoodo Gohyakurakan Park

Park

🫤 I went there thinking that the general public would be able to enter easily, but I got lost at the entrance and was stopped by what appeared to be a guard. For the general public, confirmation is required from the person in charge of public relations. It was a special place for some religious groups...

Museum of Roadside Art

Museum

👍👍 普段とはちょっと異なる愉しみを味わいたい人へ。チャージが1500円。ドリンクはちょっと高めですが、どちらかと言うとスタッフの方々との会話や空間にお金を払っている感じでした。お世話様でした。

Kyoto Shibori Museum

Museum

👍👍 Can't say enough wonderful things about this place. It was a perfect way to spend rainy afternoon learning about the Shibori process and seeing the incredible work that has been created by the mastered. Its also a wonderful spot for some souvenirs or gifts to bring back home, with options at every p...

Ichigaya Letterpress Factory

Museum

👍👍 印刷の歴史や技術が、体験を通して学べる博物館。建物がレトロ調、撮影可能なので展示以外も楽しめます。無料のロッカーあり。荷物を預けてユックリ展示が見られます。土日祝日は予約なしで、ふらりと入館出来ますが、平日は予約が必要だそう。私は日曜に行きましたが、夏休みで子どもの団体とかち合ってしまいましたが...

Sōshisha

Museum

👍👍 Before I visited, I thought it was an old-fashioned facility where victims can talk about their suffering. Isn't it another scary place filled with grudges? I also thought so. When I actually visited, I found that the young staff members had studied carefully and provided calm explanations that didn...

書肆ゲンシシャ

Book store

👍👍 面白そうと思った人には絶対面白い。古書店となっているが、たまにある趣味が高じて作ってしまった私設博物館に近い。あるいは秘宝館か見世物小屋か。店主が淹れてくれるお茶を飲みながら、奇形児の写真が見たいですなどと話しかけると次々とコレクションが出てくる。本物のスナッフビデオがネットで見れる現在だが、90年代...

Former Asaka Palace House

Historical landmark

👍👍 とても好きな場所です。定期的に訪れ、わずかな時間でもここで過ごしたいと思える魅力的な空間です。庭園は、当日入場枠もありますが、混雑状況によっては入れない場合もあるようなので、公式のサイトから事前の日時指定をするのがオススメです！

Takarazuka Revue Hall of Fame

Museum

👍👍 ミニシアターは今は10分です。コロナ前はレプリカの羽を背負って実際にトップコンビが持っていたシャンシャンを持ち写真撮影が出来ましたがそれもなくなり… 本当に寂しい世の中になりました。。。宝塚観劇の際は必ず立ち寄ります。1階の殿堂入りされたジェンヌさん達のフロアは撮影禁止ですが、2階の公演で使用された小道...

Miyajima Kitaoji Rosanjin Museum

Museum

🫤 魯山人と聞いて焼き物好きにはどうしても行きくなる美術館だが、入場料1500円は破格の高さ。貴重な焼き物の維持費や盗難防止のための人件費がかかって仕方がない値段かもしれないが、ぼったくり感は否めない。展示内容はボリュームもあり見応えはある。が、展示の仕方にもう少し工夫も欲しいところ。展示物の数が多いので、...
