This is a small museum which located near the old Starbucks. All the exhibits are placed on the second floor. There is no explonation in English. All the dolls and statues were great to see. We only wished there was some of English explonation of the statues so that we what they are all about. the cute museum has 3 different exhibition rooms that has all the findings around the area. the admission fee is only 250 yen for the adult so it's good place to try with kids. 







This statue was found at the redisential building. It is important and valueable becuase of the sitting clapping position. People believe that this pose means for praying and wishing something. the left leg were found after the all body then the statue was completed as the left leg were glued.
