Okaya Silk Museum

In Okaya Silk Museum, there is a Silk Reeling Factory (Miyasaka Silk Mill). Thus museum is a rare kind in the world. We hope to announce both the “Factory” and the “Fact” of Okaya Silk Industry. So we call Okaya Silk Museum “Silk Fact Okaya” as a nick name.

Kawaguchiko Music Forest Museum

Kawaguchiko Music Forest is a one of a kind musical them park, designed with a “European Alps” atmosphere standing beneath a superb view of Mt. Fuji. It holds a world-class collection of automatic musical instruments, including the world's largest "dance organ and doll orchestra" and the Philharmonic Performance Orchestrion designed for the Titanic. Stroll through the seasonally themed, art, and rose gardens, or take in the scenery from the comfort of the restaurant-cafe and shops. With the price of admission, you can also enjoy various musical experiences throughout the day. Particularly interesting are the automatic instrument demonstrations, and one of a kind live performance of musicians and opera singers. Also, experience the sand art storytelling artists backed by live musicians. This park is for all ages, enjoyable in all seasons, rain or shine.

Reviewed By Rossosax - Tokyo, Japan

Interesting place , many automatic organ from 1890-1905 , still working fine. Staff is very kind and willing to explain. They have some scheduled events to show “concerts” of some very ancient and big “music box”. Interesting for kids above 8-10 years and for adults.
