There are characteristic exhibits and experience corners.
Original Text
Including the Egyptian coffin, there were characteristic exhibits such as colorful glass and gold cup ・ surface. There were also some experience corners such as polishing wheat and smelling spices. Unexpectedly, I could take pictures without flashing.
I was impressed with the really good exhibition. Everything from stone to stone tools is on display, and the range and content of the exhibits were wonderful. Since it is a reservation system, you may not be able to enter until you make a phone reservation. Take a bus from Mitaka or Kichijoji to Nishino and walk for about 5 − 7 minutes. Transportation is not a good place. It's better to take time and take a closer look.
After going to Tokyo Jermy, a Muslim temple in Kiuehara, I started to be interested in Islam in the Middle East and the Near East, and I came here as well. The blue lapis lazuli is really beautiful.
It's a little unconvenient, but it's a place where you can learn about the Middle East. You can take a leisurely and take a closer look. The blue lapis lazuri was impressive.
History from the Paleolithic to the Ottoman Empire is on display. It is a valuable center. It is a rare material in Japan. It is right next to the International Christian University.
