Kusano Shimpei Memorial Literature Centre, Iwaki City (いわき市立草野心平記念文学館)
"This literary museum honors the achievements of Iwaki city poet Shimpei Kusano, who received the Order of Culture. There is a planned exhibition room, art performance space, literary plaza and small auditorium where he spent his life until 16 years old. You can look out over the Abukuma Mountain Range from the lobby. The permanent exhibition features a dome-shaped display that looks like a time warp tunnel. Through the combination of sound, light and color, you can experience his worldview of ""living with everything."""
