Worth a visit if you're in the area. Sadly like a lot of Japanese museums there is very little information in English or other languages.

Worth visiting even for foreigners to learn about the history of kamikaze “Tokkō” pilots who sacrificed their lives in world war two. I would also recommend visiting Bansei Peace Memorial Museum, which also memorises Tokkō pilots but has different exhibits. Only half an hour drive from this museum. Makes one wish there will be no war again, but sadly there are wars ongoing in some parts of the world.

This place is crucial for us to preserve, ensuring that future generations remember those who selflessly devoted their lives to our present existence. It is imperative that we strive to eliminate all wars, regardless of the reasons behind them.

Tablet with headphones available for 35 stops in the museum narrating each in English. Moving experience, the museum will help you better understand what these young pilots went through and why they did it.

Intresting and emotional place about the 1000 kamikazepilots who died during the ww2. Young boys who wrote letters their moms that you could see there. Also planes and belongings that were sent to the museum. Too bad all texts were in japanese but If you use some translation app it works a bit. Beutiful sourroundings.
