    Okinawa Kunigami-gun Ieson Higashiemae 2300-4
    "This history museum is located next to Ie Beach on southeastern Ie Island. The phrase ""nuchi du takara"" means ""life is a treasure."" The museum exhibits a wide variety of items including the personal effects left behind by the people who lived on Ie Island during the war. Each of the many exhibits that pack the museum, which range from the everyday necessities used by islanders to the bullets and bombs used by the American military, includes a description and explanation. The museum was opened with a desire to convey the preciousness of human life and the hope that war becomes a footnote in the pages of history."

    2019年4月に行きました。 一般財団法人わびあいの里という民間団体が運営する私営の資料館です。入場料がかかります。平和・反戦にかかわる資料が所狭しと展示されています。マイナーなスポットなので訪問者も少ないようです。

Let go of your image of a busy, ordered Japan and replace it with crystal-clear waters, white sand beaches, and relaxing folk music: You’ve arrived in Okinawa. A world away from the high intensity of Tokyo, Okinawans appear to live a laid-back beach life on this paradisiacal tropical island that lies in the middle of the East China Sea almost 1,000 kilometers south of mainland Japan’s most southern tip. Home to a spattering of islands, prepare yourself to discover underwater caves, star-shaped sand, and an island culture sometimes unrecognizable from mainland Japan.
