A museum with important cultural properties which is poorly taken care of by the staffs and the curator. When I visited the museum, the curator was apparently 'busy' and I could not get any explanation about the exhibition. The description labels are poor. However, I had to pay admission fee. It is very unprofessional that this museum makes visitors pay yet the explanations are told only if the curator is there, which when I asked the workers on which days the curator is available, they "didn't know" when the curator is available. So its like the curator is sometimes there and on other times its absent or 'busy' and the guests have to gamble if their money paid is worth it or not.

The museum closes at 5:00pm and I was looking at the postcards selling at the reception next to the exit/entrance at 4:58pm and the receptionist suddenly attacked me (in a disgustingly impolite rude manner) saying that the museum is closed. Do you think this is a polite behavior?

This museum is part of a important shrine in Japan yet the workers and curators have no respect and no real Japanese spirit of politeness and caring. Such a shame. Disgusted about the place completely.

(The curator on the day was at the museum and was at the staff room doing 'other things' and simply neglecting the visitors. You could actually hear the voices of the staffs and curator from the staff room located just next to the exhibition hall, since they were noisy and their voices was ruining the museum exhibition which should be quiet and peaceful. Very unprofessional and disrespectful. There is no respect to the visitors. Even if people put effort and visit the museum from far away, the curator and workers have no respect and gratitude (the museum is really hard to reach, the nearest train station is 30 minutes by walk). Completely disgusted about the experience at this museum)
