Yamato Museum

Yamato Museum, Kure, Japan, October 30, 2013

Just 25 minutes by local train from Hiroshima is the city of Kure. It is an industrial city with several ship yards. It has been so for many years, and many of the battleships that participated in WWII were build here.

To commemorate this great legacy within ship building the city has build an almost new museum (2005) that covers both the pre-war and WWII period but also modern day ship industry.

By far the best thing to see at the museum is the incredible, beautifully made 1:10 (!) scale model of the Battleship Yamato. Just next to the model is a new and quite big special exhibition covering the design of this the world largest battleship ever build.

Some other things from WWII can also be seen at the museum, such as a Zero fighter and a Long Lance type 95 torpedo.

The video contains still pictures and HD video from the museum. Again I had too little time at the museum - only a little more than 1 hour due to we had to catch a ferry to Matsuyama. The ferry terminal is just next to the museum.

Note that just 3 minutes' walk from the museum is the museum for the JMSDF (Japanese Navy).

THANK YOU FOR 15K SUBS !! :D
Overused joke is overused :3
And yeah the whole thing is intentionally as fast as the Eurobeats because I don't want to spoil too much of the museum
If you are travelling around Hiroshima then this is a must go for you all, it is in Kure, Japan (as in Kure Naval District in ww2), which features the history of the Naval Base in ww2 and more importantly a 1:10 model of the Yamato. I spent like 3 hours there because I love museums :3
We were travelling around southern Yamaguchi and my final stop was the Yamato Museum. We drove around the prefecture for almost 1300km in a Prius α hence the meme :p
Here the link to the museum:

Japan Trip: Spring 2017 | Vlog #10 | Yamato Museum (Kure Maritime Museum) & Kanazawa

Welcome to the tenth episode of my Japan Trip 2017 vlog series.

This episode Itchy and Rodier head over to the Yamato Museum a.k.a Kure Maritime Museum in Kure City (Hiroshima Prefecture) to look at the WWII Battleship Yamato. Later that afternoon, they move on to their next hotel in Kanazawa. During the following 2 days, they explore the city and visit places such as Kanazawa castle and the Nagamachi Samurai district.

Rodier's a Pokemon GO master this episode...

We were in Japan from 30th March 2017 - 4th May 2017. Expect plenty of videos! If you ever wish to visit Japan, I highly recommend getting a Japan Rail Pass. With this Rodier and I were able to travel via JR Trains & Shinkansen (Bullet Train) to a great amount of places throughout Japan as many times as we wanted with no extra cost.

The Yamato Museum pt. 1

Part 1 of my visit to the Kure City Maritime Museum. In this video we're going over the 1/10th scale model of the Battleship Yamato. Try not to drool all over the screen.

Actual footage starts at 06:35

Yamato Museum in Kure City, Japan (大和ミュージアム)

Yamato was the biggest battleship ever built and was built by Japan in 1941. On the terrace a nice view of the kure city shipyard could be observed where they built the Yamato and her sister ship the Musashi. Photos:

There was a scale model present which is a 1/10 scale. It is amazing to how many gun turrets and anti aircraft guns it houses. It is remarkable that the united states was able to sink it of the coast of kyushu the most western Japanese island by an air attack. It seems impenetrable to me.

Specs of the Yamato: Yamato's main battery consisted of nine 18.1-inch 40 cm/45 Type 94 naval guns—the largest caliber of naval artillery ever fitted to a warship. Each gun was 21.13 metres (69.3 ft) long, weighed 147.3 metric tons (162.4 short tons), and was capable of firing high-explosive or armour-piercing shells 42.0 kilometres (26.1 mi).

SCALE MODEL SHIPS COLLECTION FROM THE YAMATO MUSEUM

If you love Japanese ships you will love the scale model ships collection from the Yamato museum located in Kure, Japan. Just about 30 minutes away from Hiroshima by train.
Other than the mighty 1/10 Yamato scale model in the large hall, there were a lot of small scaled ones around it and on the second floor there is a dedicated hall full of many ships, submarines and planes scale models.
Every time I could find a ship that I actually recognized or remember its name from World Of Warships I point at it with a big smile like a little kid in a candy store..
I couldn’t resist filming each one as much as I could as my wife was waiting for me to finish with that “come on!! am bored already” look, so anyway I hope you like it guys and thumbs up or comment below and feel free to share it everywhere ;)
