Japan Kokeshi Museum

What travelers say:

An unforgettable day at the Japan National History Museum is about 2 kilometers west from Nagoko Onsen Station and about 40 minutes walk to the Japan National History Museum. The slope here is very hard and it is not recommended to wear sandals. The Akihito Mizuno, the god of the same place, represents money, wealth and good relations. It was founded in 1975 and seems to celebrate its 40th anniversary. 5,000 traditional kokeshi dolls are masterpieces. When making using the same technology, I was deeply fascinated with every artwork, and the actual production demonstrations of the craftsman were interesting, thanks to the input of the engineers. The second day I stayed at Mingzi Hot Spring, I went there, I wasn’t very interested in the Chinese History dolls, but I thought the painting experience would be interesting. Visit the Chinese History exhibition and inflate the images. There are many faces and the Chinese History kimono. The atmosphere of the kokeshi doll varies by region. The price of the beautiful souvenir was 1050 yen, or small expensive. There are many artists shops in the Mingzi Hot Spring area, so I think a walk is enough, but this is the only shop without attractions, it can be said to be a museum. I stopped and went to Mingzi Gorge. You can also see the town of Mingzi Hot Springs surrounded by mountains from the site. We were able to appreciate the difference between the area by region of Kokeshi in the northeast. Looking at the scarlet side dishes, I feel I should always cherish the traditional Japanese craftsmanship. Now, Kokeshi writers have halved in the hope that the country will last forever. There are many tourists here, and it seems good to take a photo to make a Coca-Cola doll. You can also take a bus from Nakayama Higashi Onsen Station to Nakayama Higashi Station, but due to the limited number of buses, we take a taxi to the station, which costs 1200 yen and the admission fee is 320 yen. Tips: 1. Business hours: 8:30 am to 5 pm every day. 2. Admission fee is 320 yen.
