Review

博物館はあまり、、

Reviewed : 2020.02.05

博物館はあまり発見がありませんでした。荒神谷遺跡のことを深く知りたければ、古代出雲歴史博物館に行かれることをおすすめします。遺跡から発掘された銅鐸や銅剣、銅矛はそちらに展示されています。
古代ハスを楽しめる博物館です！

この博物館は、出雲市斐川町にあり、荘原駅から車で約5分の場所にあります。周辺には、遺跡、博物館本館、史跡公園があり、出雲の歴史を感じることができるスポットになっています。初夏になると、史跡公園内の古代ハスを堪能することができます！
無料のパネル展示と講演が有りました

時たま企画展に合わせて無料のイベント講演とかが有ったので久し振りに寄ってみました。比較的に小さな展示スペースですが有料の所も高くないので荒神谷遺跡とセットで。
