Jomon Jiyukan — Attraction in Aomori

発掘された土器や生活用品、ヒスイ、土偶などが一堂に展示されている、まさに縄文文化の宝物館とも言うべき博物館です。発掘された品々を元に、当時の様々な生活環境が模型や人形等で表現されています。特にヒスイは三内丸山遺跡から産出されたものではなく、糸魚川流域で産出されたものであるため、既にこの時代からも盛んに交易が行われていたことを示す貴重な史料です。縄文文化を展示する博物館ではありますが、館内は清潔でとても洗練されており、各展示物の解説も多言語表記であるため、海外からの観光客も楽しむことが出来ます。 展示の他にも、縄文服の試着や勾玉づくりなどのワークショップが開催されていることもあります。都市部では出来ない体験をここですることが出来るでしょう。

PS: if you have the art museum ticket, you can avail a small...
