Fun free museum located in the university. If you put a donation in the box ( it lights up and makes dinosaurs sounds). This museum was quite diverse and covered many topics. About 15-20% stuff had English descriptions. I wish there were more languages available for the items that say " do not touch". It was cringey to see other tourists who can't read Japanese and or English touching things they weren't supposed to. The museum is 3 levels with a coin locker.

Interesting exhibition... It would be desirable if there were more explanations in German or English. Not every visitor can read kanji ...

There is a nobel-prize winner in Chemistry which is about the Suzuki coupling reaction. This museum also serves a REALLY GOOD ice cream and CAFE LATTE. In my opinion, the best cafe latte i've ever tried in Japan. MUST TRY the cafe latte!!

Free museum to enjoy with kids and family. You can join a large exhibition of many interesting topics from engineering, aerospace, science, dinosaurs and technology. The museum is located inside the Hokkaido University and 10m short walking distance from the nearly station. There’s a cafeteria with affordable prices and very yummy cake (so big). I’d recommend anyone to visit this place, free access, super informative and helpful to know more about local people, business and university. Recommended!

Very good and details about a university… it makes you want to study at there… So recommended for people who looking for university, with know about the university it will help you to decide what will you want to study… also very good to know the university before deciding where to continue education… sadly the major isn’t my kind of study(i am an art school type)… but cultural and social study are so interesting for me!!! Haha… This museum architecture are awesome… hoho…
