d47 Museum

It’s very interesting so called museum but not only , you can see different products from 47 Japanese provinces. There is also a gallery and startup space ,a book store and a restaurant

This restaurant offers not the usual tourist-oriented, overly seasoned Japanese food but rather dishes and drinks made with care by local Japanese artisans. With subtle sauces, you can truly taste the natural flavors of regional ingredients in an urban setting. The menu on the table provides detailed descriptions of each dish, utensil, and even the creators, making the meal feel filled with dedication. Many dishes are made with seasonal ingredients, so some items may be out of stock, but the menu variety ensures this is never an issue. I highly recommend it.

A great place to learn about design and art work, etc in different prefectures. When I visited, there was a Shimane-themed exhibition and a small area promoting Okinawan jewelry made from sea shells. Staff were helpful and you can buy many interesting products, food, crafts, clothing,...Better to visit near meal time so that you can visit the restaurant, too.

A cool museum. It can give you a good idea of each prefectures signature dish and there's a gift store that sells unique items from each prefectures.

Really cool experience!! They were exhibiting tools that were used in different prefectures in Japan, and they were showing how we could use them in our modern life. They were also selling the products which were super cool. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area :))

Small but beautiful exhibit about the various crafts across the country. There were very few signs in English, so if you don't speak Japanese, come prepared to use a translation app. The little shop had very unique goods as well, like a kiwi butter that I've never seen anywhere else. It's free to enter! There wasn't much of a crowd so you can peruse and wander at your own pace.

Wonderful way to discover designers and craftsmanship from all over Japan and to be able to purchase them is a great bonus.

Like the concept of d&department! You could experience other small cities vibe. They keep change the exhibition, and you can buy the special product of the city and d magazine!

The museum was average. It was pretty small but entrance is free and the pieces were interesting.

Don't bother. Spent 30 minutes looking for this place only to be told they were closed. There were no signs or indications anywhere that they were closed for renovations. What a waste of time. No apologies from the staff there.
