    "An art museum located in Shimogarako, Higashimatsuyama City. The museum was established to permanently exhibit the Hiroshima Panels, an art series created collaboratively between husband and wife painters Iri and Toshi Maruki. Of the 15 panels, the museum possesses panels one through 14 (panel 15, ""Nagasaki,"" is in the collection of the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum). The museum's permanent exhibition also includes other collaborative works created by the husband and wife team on themes like pollution and atrocities. In addition, the museum holds special exhibitions. (The museum can also be rented out as an art space.)"

    東松山にある美術館です。交通の便が悪いので基本車での移動となります。有名な原爆の絵など様々な戦争の悲惨さを感じさせる美術品が展示されています。是非訪れてほしい場所です。

Eclipsed by neighboring Tokyo, Saitama is often branded as the sleepy suburbs. However, look a little deeper and you’ll uncover quaint towns bursting with history and crafts from the kurazukuri Edo-period clay houses of Kawagoe to the ancient tree-enveloped temples of Chichibu.
