Hida Furukawa Festival Hall

Rob C in the last week

Worth going to just see the amazing 20-min video presentation of the festival in the mini theatre itself! Friendly staff, and seeing the floats and costumes up close. Tip: received a 200 yen discount coupon from the visitor centre in town to use for this exhibition.

Sorry no photos. As you may already know and followed, I have visited all the float in Takayama. And this is another float exhibition hall in Hida-Furakawa. In there there are more interactive things that you can explore. They have the big screen that almost like cinema. Introducing the festival that last for 18mins. They have some puppets and drums and etc that you can try them out. With all the festival floats, this is better since you can so-called be involved. But all the three, give me a good understanding about the how such festivals are.

A place to understand Hida-Furukawa festival. A theatre to show the festival. Close up looks of the Floats, experience the control of wooden puppet, enter the display float & etc. During the festival, floats will back to their storehouse. Therefore, no floats will be display at the exhibition.

It was fascinating to learn about Hida Furukawa Festival. This museum is well kept, and they have a nice theater to watch a short documentary about the matsuri. ☺️ Set tickets with a discount can be bought, which includes entrance to the nearby crafts museum. 🔨

A fascinating museum which explains the local Hida Furukawa Festival. Has displays of all the instruments, equipment and floats used in the festival and has a 20 minute video which shows and explains the festival. The video is Japanese but has very well translated English subtitles. A must see if you're in the area and admission is only ¥500. The staff were also incredibly kind and welcoming.
