This was great especially on a rainy day. We caught the 39 bus which stops two minutes away. It is 200 yen to enter. We were there a couple of hours. There are lots of interactive exhibits. The signs are in Japanese but have QR codes for the English. We didn’t bother because we could see what the items were. Overall a very fun museum.

Could have spent 2 hours here if I had the time to look at everything carefully. Was even better than expected after reading all the positive reviews here. Apart from the salt section and the tobacco section, when I went there was an exhibition on tobacco advertisement posters from the past - very interesting to look at and the explanations were entertaining to read. For the permanent exhibitions (salt section and tobacco section), there is an excellent audio guide in various languages. You can either use smartphone or if you didn't bring your headphones like me you can rent an audio guide at the counter for free (pay 1000yen deposit). Staff were friendly and helpful. And can't believe admission is just 100yen! I would've happily paid more given all the thought, research, design and preparation that must've gone into this museum!
