    Fukushima Kitakata-shi Umetake 7294-4
    This brick-built art museum stands out in the Kitakata urban area. Found across from the city hall, it has a collection of about 700 pieces of art carefully collected by local farm and merchant families. The gallery extends from the first to third floors, and offers a chance to see pottery from private collections, lacquerware from Aizu and the rest of Japan, paintings and calligraphic work, and more. The Imari ware collection, which ranges from the Edo period to modern work, is a must see. There are many other items well worth seeing such as the Makie collection and the maps of the Aizu Wakamatsu castle town.

    喜多方はどこに行っても蔵造りです。周りの景観に合わせてのことですが、それがまた、よく調和されています。見事です。そして素敵です。喜多方は。で、この美術館ですが、地元の人のコレクションの陶磁器などの美術品を多数、集めたものです。中身の展示品も素敵ですが、外の建物も素敵です。

    ラーメンが有名になりましたが、蔵の街ということで蔵が有名な街です。 散策していろいろな建物を見るのが楽しいのですが、駅から遠く、また点在しているので、歩きだと厳しいかもしれません。
