This museum is very unique, "all you can take photos" on Azuchi-Momoya-Edo Samurai, Ninjya Katana, Yoroi, tools, paintings and etc., more than a couple hundred of things are displayed. I have never seen in such museum in Japan, most of places are protected by "NO PHOTO", but this place is permitted and it is all real, not replicas.
