    Hyogo Ako-shi Kamikariya 916-1
    "This history museum is known by the nickname ""Shio to Gishi no Yakata,"" a reference to the city's salt production and its famous 47 ronin. The museum collects and exhibits materials related to local history with an objective of contributing to the advancement of education and the development of culture. Each of the permanent exhibits covers a different theme. ""The Salt of Ako"" has a focus on salt-making equipment. ""Ako Castle and Its Castle Town"" introduces it through models and paintings. ""The Loyal Retainers of Ako"" covers the 47 ronin in terms of both historical fact as well as their depiction in culture. ""The Old Ako Waterworks"" explains it through excavated artifacts, videos, and other exhibits. The museum is a hub for raising public awareness about the Ako's 47 ronin and a place where visitors can take a systematic look at the history of salt-making."

    赤穂城跡を訪れたときに立ち寄りました。場所柄、赤穂浪士関連の展示はもちろんありましたが、製塩関係や上水などについての展示もあり、予想より興味深く見学できました。JAFの割引対象でした。建物が米蔵のようになっていました。中は撮影禁止でした。

    小春日和の中、静かなところに行きたい。まだ紅葉には早い書写山の麓のロープウェイ乗り場を過ぎた辺り、竹林の中に少しばかり丸みを帯びた大きな瓦屋根の建物が現れました。入ると直ぐに清水公照氏が全国の窯元で作成したユーモラス泥仏達が迎えてくれます。訪れる人も少なく、ゆったりとほっこりした清水ワールドが広がる。奥には灘のけんか祭りの屋台も展示。丁度日本のガラス展が開催されていました。また、明珍火箸や姫路張り...

    日本へそ公園内にある地球・宇宙をテーマにした科学館。1992年開館。入館料400円。岡之山美術館との共通券は500円。目を回した丸顔のキャラクターのような外観をした建物は建築家・毛綱毅曠の設計。館内展示は魅力に乏しいが、追加料金なしでプラネタリウム鑑賞、天文台での大型望遠鏡を使用した太陽・惑星の観察ができるので、それを目的に訪れるのがいいでしょう。
