    Aichi Pref. Okazakishi Okachou Torido 1-1
    The world first fully-fledged art museum for children. The museum first opened in 1985 with the aim of cultivating in children a broad, international perspective and strong imagination. The artworks on display in the museum focus on pieces by children around the world and pieces created by famous artists during their childhood. The museum also has a standing exhibition of folk crafts, toys, and picture books from across the globe. The museum’s display rooms are divided into three themes—think, look, and create. The museum has been carefully designed so that children can learn and have fun. In the adjoining Parents and Children Art Center, painting and handicraft classes are held daily.

    小高い丘にあって駐車場は広い。無料駐車場横に屋外トイレがあるので慌てずに済みます。広場も広く、滑り台などの遊具も一通り揃っています。保育園児達が遊びに来ていました。木陰も沢山あって、冬以外はちょっとしたピクニック気分で出かけられそう。親もここなら子どもを安心安全に遊ばせることが出来るかと。館内での企画展は、にこやかな女性のいる受付から始まってぐるりと一周する感じで受付に戻ってきます。館内の女性案内...

    Aichi Pref. Toyotashi Kozakahonmachi 1-25 Toyota Industrial and Cultural Center
    A science museum located inside the Toyota Industry Culture Center. Science shows, chemistry experiment workshops, and other events are held regularly in the Science Hall. The museum also has a planetarium and is frequented by families, particularly on weekends.

    名古屋市の科学館などに比べたら小さいですが、お値段も300円だったかすごく安く入れます。 また最近では「赤ちゃんとプラネタリウム」と言うイベントをたびたび実施しており「初めてのプラネタリウム」と言う名前だったかな。 とても地域に根付いているプラネタリウムです。 その入口では150円ぐらいで物作り教室が毎週末開催されていて何かを親子で製作できます。 雨の日などに行くとちょうどいいかも。

    Aichi Pref. Nisshinshi Asadachou Sasahara 30
    This museum is located about a seven-minute walk from the No. 2 exit of the Akaike Station on the Tsurumai Subway Line. Three representative cars from the street tram that used to traverse Nagoya City, and two Model 100 cars, fondly called the yellow train, from when the subway was first built are on display. Visitors can freely enter the train cars, sit and take in the atmosphere decorated with period posters and newspaper articles, and study the history of the streetcars from the displays of the mechanical parts, and more. There is a drive simulator so that one can experience what it’s like to be a train engineer, games, quizzes, and more, making this museum a fun place for both children and adults.

    赤池駅から徒歩10分ほどでいけます。 名古屋市交通局の日進工場敷地内にあり、初めてだと少し入りにくいかもしれませんが左手奥に建物があります。 前もって調べていましたがこじんまりとした博物館です。 ただし、地下鉄1種類、路面電車3種類が保存されています。路面電車の解説に重点を置いていて、コンパクトながらも内容は濃いといえました。 車両に乗れるし、座席にも座れるし、運転台にも近づけるしで申し分はありま...

    企画展の浮世絵展を見に行きました。三河の街の箱物は某企業のおかげでどこも目を見張るほどきれいですね。浮世絵の女性をいろいろな視点から分類し、解説も面白くかつわかりやすく書いてあり、非常に楽しめました。浮世絵は江戸時代の週刊誌的な存在でいろいろな情報の発信地だったのがよくわかりました。それにしてもお歯黒という風習は謎だなあ。当時の人はあれが美しく思えたのだろうか。常設展も見られるのでそれも一緒に見ま...

Aichi Areas

around-area-map

Aichi is a prefecture of great natural beauty with Nagoya city at its heart, a busy hub home to a labyrinth of underground shops and the 17th-century Nagoya Castle. Castles are easy to find in this history-rich prefecture, but the highlight for history buffs has to be the Museum Meiji-mura, where preserved buildings from the turn of the 20th century are displayed in all their grandeur in an outdoor museum.
