Ohno Karakuri Memorial Museum — Attraction in Kanazawa

I love this Museum!!! The entry is around 500¥ and at the begging I thought was quite expensive compare to the size of the museum, but nop!! You have to go! It's full of wooden puzzle and amazing exhibitions. You can spend hours their inside playing with all the wooden crafts. Don't miss the exhibition which is only in certain times, but it's just in Japanese so better come with a friend. And at the end you can wear the Happi coat which are traditional Japanese clothes usually worn only...

I loved every moment of the Karakuri Museum! So deeply fascinating, I am sure it must be lots of fun for children but as an adult I thoroughly enjoyed it! They have an English audio guide you can follow by scanning the QR code at each exhibit (and they have free WiFi) which gives great information! The puppet demonstration was great, it was well worth the trip on the bus out to Ohno...

This museum is off the beaten track but worth a visit. You can access it by taking a bus then walking about 20 minutes. The building is cool and staff inside were very helpful. We were there for the puppet demonstration which was fun and informative. We also spent quite a while solving (or trying to!) the wooden puzzles. The cost is ¥500pp...
