[The only one in the world] Horseshoe crab museum

I found my favorite museum 😝✨ The Kasaoka City Horseshoe Crab Museum in Kasaoka, Okayama Prefecture, is the only museum in the world themed around horseshoe crabs. The building has a unique shape that resembles a horseshoe crab, and inside you can observe live horseshoe crabs and see dinosaur skeletons! The adjacent Dinosaur Park has life-size dinosaur models on display, making it popular with families. The playground equipment is also dinosaur-themed, so your kids are sure to be excited 😆 It's easily accessible, about 20 minutes by bus from JR Kasaoka Station, get off at the "Horseshoe Crab Museum" stop, and it's about a 2-minute walk from there. Please come and visit! 📍🦀 Horseshoe Crab Museum Basic Information • Address: 1946-2 Yokoshima, Kasaoka City, Okayama Prefecture, 714-0043 • Phone number: 0865-67-2477 • Official website: Kasaoka City Horseshoe Crab Museum    ⸻ 🕘 Opening hours and closed days • Opening hours: 9:00-17:00 (last entry 16:30) • Closed days: Every Monday (next day if Monday is a public holiday) ⸻ 💴 Admission fee (individual) • General: 520 yen • High school students: 310 yen • Elementary and junior high school students: 210 yen
