Aggregate
I introduced you how to enjoy the Samurai Museum.The Samurai Museum not only looks at the exhibits by the time, but you can also see the powerful killing and the gathering by looking at it.It is a place where you can listen to Japanese traditional musical instruments, wear a helmet, and take photos.
When I visit the Samurai Museum, I can see the Japanese history and age regardless of the country or age.I think there are some foreigners who enjoy different views from the Japanese people, so I think it is a place where I can do cross-cultural exchanges easily.Also, in Shinjuku, the Basuta-shinjuku of the highway bus terminal was established, and it became a place where access was easy.Please visit me.
