The 6 Best History Museums in Ochanomizu / Akihabara / Kanda, Kanto
Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

KANDA MYOJIN Kanda Myojin is a 1300-year-old shrine located in Sotokanda, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo. The deities are enshrined at lchinomiya, Daikoku-sama (matchmaking), Ninomiya, Ebisu-sama (prosperous business), Sannomiya, and Taira no Masakado(game luck). Because it is close to the business district of Tokyo, it is a shrine that is crowded with many business people and many worshipers to benefit. #神田明神 は… 東京に鎮座して1300年の歴史を持つ 正式名称「神田神社」 千代田区外神田にある神社。 祭神は 一ノ宮…大黒様(縁結び) 二ノ宮…恵比寿様(商売繁盛) 三ノ宮…平将門(勝負運) 首都圏 東京の騒々しさとは相対して 鳥居をくぐると一転して 穏やかな空気感と力強さを感じるパワー 季節の変わり目で桜や新緑 紅葉など 様々な表情をみせるパワースポット 不安に感じ 何かに縋りたい世の中 参拝者が絶えないのも人々を引き付ける 居心地がいい場所で有り続けているから では無いでしょうか…????

3. The Meiji University Museum
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 64 reviews
Based on Meiji University's founding philosophy of "Rights, Liberty, Independence and Self-Government", the Meiji University Museum aims to publicly exhibit the achievements of its academic pursuits and to also serve as an institution of learning. The Museum is divided into three departments, each having a distinct origin. The Commodity Department, the successor to the "Commodities Museum" considers lifestyles through commodities; and the Criminal Materials Department, follows in the footsteps of its predecessor the "Museum of Criminology" and contemplates law and human rights. The Archaeology Department, formerly the "Archaeological Museum", is concerned with humankind's past and diversity. In this 21st century, we are embroiled in a myriad of problems. We hope some hint to overcoming them can be found in this museum.
