【Tokyo Guide】Old life style of Japan#1（Ueno Shitamachi Museum）
This museum was established to teach future generations about the culture of the shitamachi. The shitamachi was originally an area of Edo* where the common people lived. The word shitamachi is composed of the word shita meaning down and machi meaning town, and one can often see it translated into English literally as downtown. However, shitamachi is not the same as the English word downtown, which refers to a city's central businessdistrict. The shitamachi name originated from the actual level of the land in the area. In Edo, the land to the south-east of Edo Castle (now the Imperial Palace) was lowlands, and the land to the north-west was a plateau, and during the formative years of the city, the lowlands became the place where artisans and merchants lived. This lowlands area near Edo Castle became known as shitamachi.
There were many unique qualities that defined the shitamachi and still exercise an influence over the area today. For example, the shitamachi's high population density resulted in the building of crowded tenement houses called nagaya. These nagaya were made of wood and built very close together, which rendered the region highly susceptible to fire.This living environment bred a people with a unique disposition and way of life. The culture of the shitamachi is the culture of Tokyo's common people, and it contributed greatly to the culture of Edo just as it contributes to Tokyo as a city today.
People's lifestyles change when their living environment changes, and old culture is naturally lost over time. In 1868, Edo was renamed Tokyo and the city began to modernize, but traces of the old ways remained in the shitamachi. The massive destruction caused by the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and the wartime fires of 1945, and the reconstruction following these disasters are what really changed Tokyo. The 1960s saw a development boom spurred on by the 1964 Tokyo Summer Olympics, and this era also saw a dramatic increase in the use of electric appliances, all which further sped the degree of change in the city. The initial movement for the establishment of this museum began during that time.
During this period of rapid change the people did gain convenience and comfort, but they began to lose or forget many other things. The desire to somehow preserve these things for future generations was the basis for founding the museum. Many supporters from within Taito-ku and beyond contributed a variety of items, and the Shitamachi Museum opened in 1980.

Tokyo Toy Museum 東京おもちゃ美術館
The Tokyo Toy Museum (or 東京おもちゃ美術館 in Japanese) is just east of Shinjuku, in the Yotsuya sanchome area, and a lot of people probably miss it because it's not especially close to any stations. But if you have young kids, it's really worth the visit to see so many fun wooden toys.
Tokyo Toy Museum on Google Maps:
Official Tokyo Toy Museum website:
The museum looks to be sort of an impromptu display in an old school, which is pretty amazing considering how well it is put together. You'll find a number of floors, each with a variety of displays and sometimes even activities for kids to partake in.

Iwatsuki Ningyo Craftsmanship
Saitama’s Iwatsuki ranks number one in ningyo (doll) production (volume and value) in Japan. Both, the Iwatsuki Ningyo and Edo Kimekomi Ningyo crafted in Iwatsuki, are national designated traditional craftworks where each ningyo is carefully handmade by experienced and skillful craftsmen and artisans. The Iwatsuki Ningyo Museum, set to open on February 22, 2020, is established to celebrate and preserve ningyo history and culture. Iwatsuki is only a short train ride from Tokyo so drop by to find the most refined ningyo in all Japan.
Japanese traditional dolls - 人形 - 4K Ultra HD
Japanese traditional dolls - 人形 - 4K Ultra HD : Like any culture, dolls or ningyō, have been and are still very popular in Japan. Today we had the chance to share with you some of these gorgeous creations made by Fukuda-sensei, a Japanese doll master we had the chance to meet while exploring their creations and private collection in Tokyo.
Unlike Europe for example, Japanese Dolls were not only toys for kids but also considered as art in much the same way as statues are art, and this is how they are treated in many Japanese homes.
Like an elaborate sculpture, it can take up to one year to make such a doll from start to finish, due to the delicate nature of the materials involved and the time required for the paint to dry. Doll masters sometimes need up to one month to finish a doll’s head for example and need to pay close attention to humidity when working.
Finally, on average a doll costs between 100,000 - 500,000 yen, but the rarest ones can fetch up to several million yen, depending on how famous the artist is.

The Railway Museum, Saitama, Japan | A Taste of Japan #14
A Taste of Japan #14 - The Railway Museum, Saitama
The Railway Museum of Omiya, Saitama City is a train geek's dream. The huge museum has many trains, including shinkansen (bullet trains), an Imperial car, and small trains you can actually drive. In fact, there are train simulators with replicas of each type of train you can drive, from an old steam locomotive to a modern commuter train to a shinkansen. I tried the Keihin-Tohoku Line train, a train I frequently took. You can watch my experience of driving a train at The Railway Museum. The Railway Museum is located near Omiya, which is in Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture, north of Tokyo. Great for children and train enthusiasts, The Railway Museum is one of the top destinations in Saitama.
