Shijonawate City History and Folklore Museum

While some people think of a history and folklore museum as a place that only provides specialized explanations, the museum has made efforts to make its exhibits fun and easy for children to understand. For example, there's a special event called "The Know-It-All." This event involves answering a quiz correctly and receiving a "Know-It-All" membership card and a gift. The staff put their ingenuity into planning this event so that everyone can enjoy learning about history. The gifts are original illustrations made with digital cameras or hand-drawn. There are so many different types that by the time you collect them all, your membership card will be full of stamps. The exhibits here also incorporate various creative ideas. Illustrations and papier-mâché models clearly show how the excavated items were used and what life was like for them, making it enjoyable even for first-time museum visitors.
