    Iwate Morioka-shi Motomiya Araya 13-1
    "The museum is located in ""Morioka Central Park"" in Hongu-araya, Morioka City. The museum exhibits excavated materials from the Odate Town Ruins, a historical site designated by the prefecture, as well as other ruins excavated in the city. In addition to thematic and special exhibitions, the museum also offers hands-on learning opportunities such as pottery making. There is also a library with access to historical materials."

    入口が道路とは反対側にあるので、ちょっと見過ごしてしまいがちですが、結構おもしろい博物館です。土器や石器がたくさんあって、時代ごとの変遷も併せて学べます。

    御所湖畔の自宅のような建物に、自分が気に入ったという東欧やロシアの絵画を展示する私的な美術館。 現代アートのような作品から、郷土色豊かな作品まで。奥には喫茶ルームもあって、これも見どころのひとつでしょう。

Iwate Areas

around-area-map

A northern Tohoku prefecture promising peace and quiet, Iwate is sparsely populated, replacing people with snow-capped mountains, history-rich sites, and fields of crops that are to thank for the region’s delicious local cuisine. Meander along the three-city Golden Route, where you’ll visit the grand Buddhist temples of Hiraizumi and the Tono folk villages before tasting the three famed noodle dishes of Morioka.
