A memorial museum in Ami Town, home to the legacy of the Yoka-Ren (Navy Flight Reserve Training). Through letters, personal belongings, and video exhibits, it quietly conveys the daily lives of teenage trainees. The striking architecture, resembling a series of white boxes, is also noteworthy, and the museum is perfect for elementary school peace education. It's a place that naturally prompts family discussions about the experience.

The exhibits encourage quiet reflection, so plan 30-60 minutes. Check the official website beforehand as the museum has occasional closures (often Mondays). Free parking makes driving convenient.
Best time to visit
