Fukuyama Auto & Clock Museum — Attraction in Fukuyama

Truly impressive! Hopped a quick shin from iwakuni to Fukuyama, walked about 10 minutes and literally found myself in heaven! As an amateur horologist, aviation and automobile enthusiast this place is like a mini mecca! First off photos do not do the collection size justice. The amount of antique clocks, watches, pocket watches, pianos, toys, phones, fuel pumps, vehicles, rocking horses, machines, airplanes, and motorcycles is mind blowing. A lifetime of incredible collecting for the average Joe to go and enjoy. These cars are not locked away. If you can fit in them or on them, you're welcome enter the vehicles and sit on the motorcycles and even sit in the airplane!! My son was over the moon while I was blown away by the amount of history and rarity at my fingertips. Honestly, it is one of the best museums I have visited in Japan and absolutely worth the trip. Short walk from the train station and lots to do and see in the area. Only 900 yen to enter for adults and worth ever yen! Can easily spend over an hour without even trying. Great photo opportunities in every nook and cranny of the museum, and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable talking to me about the owner and items in the museum (when she had a spare moment). I will be going back again just to enjoy this collection before I leave Japan. Go, enjoy, and support this incredible collection...

Extremely nice and helpful staff. If you’re interested in history at all, definitely go, as there are little corners with different bits of history tucked away throughout the buildings (and other...

An amazing private collection of clocks, cars, motorcycles, pianos, and various other household items, that have been made available for public viewing on payment of an admission fee (juniors and seniors are entitled to a discount). You are permitted to touch and photograph most of the exhibits. The proprietor of the museum is in his 80's and has been amassing the collection since his 20's. The museum is approximately 15 minutes walk from...
