Really great museum!! Only 300 yen but really well presented space with videos, lots of photo ops, and really nice layout of the floats and history. Also, the staff were soo friendly - one saw me looking at a photo op section and ran down with a list of English phrases to ask me if I wanted him to take my picture! Another one explained the floats and history all in pretty good English which was a first for me in Japan. The only improvement I would say is they could put English subtitles in the videos but all in all very worth it

Really fascinating and charming museum! Unfortunately I missed the festival itself but learning about it in the museum was great, especially for the price of only 300 yen. The staff were exceptional and incredibly friendly, and they did their utmost to ensure I understood each of the exhibits and the history behind them. During the presentation in Japanese, one of the guides very kindly explained everything to me in English and took photos of me with the floats! It's definitely worth visiting if you are in the area.

If you want to learn a lot of good information about the city’s history and the stories behind the local festivals, look no further than this museum. It’s not as expansive as other places but the staff are full of knowledge about their hometown. Come to find out that October 15 - 16, the city will celebrating 100 years with the largest festival ever. Can’t wait to attend!!

Definitely worth a visit. I learned about the matsuri and got to deep these amazing floats. Photos do not reflect how beautifully crafted these pieces are. Please visit the museum and spread the word! The staff is super super nice: we went there before closing time, were pretty much the only ones visiting and an expert from the staff even gave us a private tour!

A small museum offering an interesting glimpse at the Kawagoe festival. If you’ve missed the actual festival, this is the next best thing. The entrance fee is 300yen per visitor, if you’re interested in learning more about Kawagoe’s festivals, it is worth a visit. The staff are also incredibly friendly.

Οι Ιάπωνες πιστεύουν πως υπάρχουν εκατομμύρια θεοί που "κατοικούν" σε όλα τα πράγματα, άψυχα κ έμψυχα. Τα matsuri ( ματσούρι) γίνονται για να εκφράσουν την ευγνωμοσύνη τους στους θεούς, στη φύση! Αν δεν καταφέρετε να βρεθείτε στο ματσούρι του Kawagoe που γίνεται το 3ο Σαββατοκύριακο του Οκτωβρίου μπορείτε να το βιώσετε εικονικά στο καταπληκτικό μουσείο! Ο κύριος κ η κυρία στην είσοδο (που δυστυχώς δεν κράτησα τα ονόματά τους), μου είπαν την ιστορία του μουσείου, μου φόρεσαν τη στολή, μ έβαλαν πίσω από τα τύμπανα κ φωτογραφηθήκαμε! Μην παραλείψετε να δείτε το 6 λεπτο βίντεο στην γιγαντο-οθόνη κ στη συνέχεια να απολαύσετε τα Mikoshi ( μικροί φορητοί ναοί) από κοντά ! Στον ένα διάδρομο θα δείτε όλες τις αφίσες του φεστιβάλ από την δημιουργία του. Υπάρχουν πολλά βίντεο στο YouTube, αλλά είναι διαφορετική αίσθηση να βρεθείτε ανάμεσα στο πλήθος που ακολουθεί τα Mikoshi!
