    知人のコンサートがこちらで開催された際訪問しました。 こぢんまりしていますが、とても雰囲気の良い博物館です。 バイオリンに特化しているので展示物や説明はとても充実していて、バイオリンの事を少し理解することが出来ました。

    Tottori Tohaku-gun Yurihamacho Kamihashizu 710-2
    A local museum located at the northern edge of the Hawai Plain. The five-story building modeled after haniwa earthen objects and a castle is top of Mt. Umanoyama at 107 meters above sea level. This mountain is also famous as the setting of the ancient battle during which Hashiba Hideyoshi conquered the Chugoku region. It has one of the oldest and largest tombs in the San'in area, Umanoyama No.4 ancient tomb, as well as a lookout with an 360° panoramic view of the beautiful natural surroundings. When the weather is clear, the view takes in Lake Togo, the Sea of Japan, and even Mt. Daisen. The sight of the museum lit up at night is particularly magical.
