Kita no Kuni kara Museum, Television drama museum in Furano, Japan.
The Kita no Kuni kara Museum is a red brick warehouse in Furano that displays original scripts, costumes, props, and filming equipment from a celebrated television series. The exhibition preserves materials that document the show's production and storytelling.
The warehouse started as a temporary summer exhibition in 1995 and operated in a former agricultural storage building. It transitioned to permanent operations as a dedicated museum in 2003.
The television series drew many visitors to Hokkaido who wanted to experience the rural landscape and stories featured in the show. The museum reflects how the story shaped how Japanese audiences understood country life in this northern region.
The museum sits near Furano's center and is walking distance from the train station. Information panels are available in multiple languages, making it straightforward to understand the exhibitions.
The collection holds handwritten manuscripts created by one of the show's screenwriters alongside actual equipment used during filming. These objects provide an unusual window into how the series was made.
