💡 Tips for Visitors

Visit during the actual Tachineputa Festival (August 4-8) to see the floats parade through the streets, though the museum offers year-round access. English signage is limited, so consider downloading a translation app or picking up an English pamphlet at the entrance. The museum is about 3 minutes walk from Goshogawara Station on the JR Gono Line.
