Matsue History Museum

Samuel Goldberg 3 months ago

Genuinely don’t know how Japan is this good at museums. The exhibits are a fantastic mix of traditional artifacts and interactive screens, there’s some really fun models, a fantastic gift shop and cafe, and the staff were some of the nicest I’d encountered on my most recent trip to Japan. Super recommend the cafe, you get to sit in front of a nice Japanese garden complete with a view of the castle.

One of the best places to experience local Japanese cultural Immersion with a tea event. I love it! Highly recommended. Efficient. Easy. Relaxing.

we visited this museum as a prelude to visting the matsue castle. they have a small but high quality collection of local artefacts arranged to present the history of matsue castle. there is an english audio guide available for free as well discount tickets for non japanese. You can get a combo ticket for museum and castle. they have regular art exhibitions. there is an excellent coffee shop and gift shop.

This museum was incredible! They have all kinds of interesting artifacts from times past in Japan, they also have a sweet shop, and a tea room. Before you enter the Sweet Shop, there are two giant sculptures made entirely out of Japanese sweets! They're very beautiful.
