Samurai Museum Nagoya Touken World — Attraction in Nagoya

I wasn't really sure to give this 4 or 5 stars. Maybe 4.4. The overall experience is really rather good, but there are some caveats.

The building is new, clean and well air-conditioned and I think would be okay for people with disabilities. There are a lot of exhibits of samurai armour and weapons, as well as some ukiyo-e prints. However, there are a LOT of exhibits and although the swords etc were beautiful, there were so many that I got a bit tired after a while. I think a more concise collection with some other, non-weapon exhibits, might be a bit better. Some signage in English, although there was the same problem as most museums have in Japan as the text is just simply translated and there is no real context given. They often put in references to people or time periods, who I assume Japanese people would know, that most foreigners would have no idea about. 1200 yen is quite high for a Japanese museum, although by Western standards, probably quite cheap. I mean, there is certainly enough to see to make it worth the money, but it'll depend on how much you like looking at swords etc.

On the whole, an excellent museum, but I think you do have to have at least a passing interest in the samurai or weapons in general as it is fairly specialised. If you really look at everything properly, you'll need at least two or...

While they have some English language on most posters and sword exhibits, I felt the English content lacked compared to the Japanese contentb they could reprint the labels with the full content in both languages, to improve the experience for tourists, otherwise it would've...

還沒入館，就看到戶外展品的戰國三傑--織田信長、豐臣秀吉以及德川家康塑像，這三位都是出身於愛知縣（尾張、三河）的豪傑，從雕像的動作和擺位，不然看出館方對於戰國三傑的評價，當然，就算不考慮成就，按照＂倫理＂也應該讓老闆織田信長在＂C位＂。

博物館的售票口和門禁口都在本館二樓，這一層樓還有咖啡廳與餐廳，不過我們才吃過赤味噌炸豬排，還是專心看展吧！大人票價￥1200（65 歲以上 ￥1000），國中以下是￥300（小提琴美少女：當＂小人＂真棒！），看起來是相當鼓勵中小學校外教學的門票價位。首先是我們不知道可以拍照而沒拍的「體驗．體感區」，除了讓我們實地感受武士刀和火槍的重量，現場還可以借用無開鋒刀劍和服裝 cosplay...
