Next stop: An early evening bite of Yoichi's famous fruit and local specialtiesAbout this spot
This memorial museum centers on items connected to the astronaut from Yoichi Town, introducing the history and mechanics of space development. It's full of hands-on corners kids can enjoy, such as trying on a spacesuit and exhibits about weightlessness. Beyond its image as a town of orchards and whisky, this popular spot for families reveals a surprising side—Yoichi as the hometown of an astronaut.
Tips
The hands-on corners can get crowded, so allow plenty of time when you visit. Combining this with the adjacent roadside station makes for an efficient visit. Many areas inside allow photography, making it good for souvenir photos too.
Best time to visit
About 1 hour. The hands-on corners are relatively less crowded in the afternoon.
