Momotarou-no-Karakuri-Hakubutsukan

Reviewed By CelynT - Luzon, Philippines

This is one of my favorite places in Kurashiki. The museum has a lot of interactive activities related to Momotaro. Oh, if you haven't experienced a Japanese haunted house, try visiting this place because they have one on the second floor. The staff are nice, too. Knowing that we were foreigners, they guided us how to experience the activities ln the first floor.
