Takano Choei Former Residence
"10 minutes on foot from Mizusawa Station on the Tohoku Main Line, this memorial hall established in 1971 honors the achievements of Takano Choei, a leading person who hailed from the region. As a doctor practicing Western medicine, he authored many of Japan's first books on physiology. The museum displays about 200 of his books, translations, letters, and personal items. A May 5 Birthday Festival and October 30 Takano Choei Festival are held free of charge. A small special exhibit called ""Takano Choei Translations"" features stories about the Dutch language."
