View Magnificent Edo-Style Puppet Festival Floats Up Close
About this spot
A facility featuring a permanent exhibition of Edo-style puppet festival floats that are actually paraded during the Tochigi Autumn Festival. In the display room where three floats are lined up, sound and lighting effects recreate the festive atmosphere alongside festival music. The intricately crafted puppets and luxurious embroidered curtains are spectacular and perfect for setting the mood for a warehouse district walk.
Tips
The float explanatory screening runs on approximately 20-minute cycles, so check the next showing when you arrive. Viewing first thing in the morning will make your subsequent warehouse district exploration many times more enjoyable.
Best time to visit
Approximately 40 minutes required. Early morning right after opening is uncrowded and comfortable.
