Peace Aichi — Attraction in Nagoya

Visiting a few musea around Nagoya and other cities, we wondered why there is so little info around the various wars, so I did a little search and we found Peace Aichi. While a small museum, it stacks a lot of info on the various wars (predominantly WWII). Most info is in Japanese, but with the QR codes, there is English translation available. The museum is very objective, and open. Be prepared to learn a few more things you might not have known or realised.

展示規模は小さいという声もありますが、戦争を学ぶ分には充分な資料館だと思います。戦争と平和を考える...
