(Kaori’s Highlights)

A trip to explore the history of Nasu is very interesting.
Kengo Kuma designed the building with the theme of a “disappearing building” that blends into its surroundings with glass walls.
Light, semi-transparent panels made from processed straw cover the ceiling and glass surfaces and make the museum very bright.
