Tokyo Metropolitan Police Museum
The kids have been looking forward to this for a long time, and we finally made it today. It's just a 2-minute walk from Kyobashi Station. Admission is free, and currently, floors 1 to 5 are open to the public. π’π 5th Floor: Features the history of the police from the Showa era, Heisei era, and even earlier times. It includes introductions to police uniforms and some police photographs. This area is not very suitable for children. 4th Floor: Explains how police academy students become police officers and the different categories of police officers. π’π 3rd Floor: Focuses on crime evidence detection, a koban (police box) building model, and some interactive mini-games. 2nd Floor: Includes dialing 110, simulated street crime video explanations, earthquake knowledge presentations, simulated bicycle riding, and other mini-games. π’π 1st Floor: Features motorcycle riding, helicopter driving, and a junior police officer costume experience. We visited in the afternoon, and the costume distribution had already ended, so we couldn't experience it. π’π Overall, it's not very suitable for a five-year-old. Children who are older, can understand Japanese, and recognize characters, especially those over 7 years old, will have a better experience. Address: 1-5-1 Kyobashi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104-0031 #Tokyo ππ
