The museum is a multipurpose space that can be used for lectures and workshops, in addition to exhibits, and it also functions as a library for educational and research purposes.

Our immersive video theater with a 3-sided screen will feature films on topics such as "Japan's Diverse Culture and Nature" and "The Nature and Life on Remote Border Islands." Through this powerful visual experience, you'll be able to feel the appeal of Japan more deeply.

The space is suitable for lectures and symposiums (including hybrid formats) and can be used for remote learning and workshops.

Only three sets of Ino’s Small Maps
are known to exist worldwide. The
set in the collection of the National
Archives in the UK is particularly
interesting as it was provided by the
Edo Shogunate to the British Navy.
Its excellent state of preservation
and the various annotations added
to it for British naval charts make it a
fascinating artifact.
*Scheduled for completion around March
2026. Until then, a small-scale replica will
be exhibited.

Trace the changes in the perception of "Japan" through maps from the Edo to early Meiji periods.
We collect and organize books, magazines, and other materials on the history and current situation of Japan's territory and sovereignty. We also provide educational resources such as supplementary teaching materials, lesson plans, maps, and historical documents to aid research and education.
