Inaba Manyo Historical Museum

The Inaba Manyo Historical Museum contains exhibits about the ancient poetry anthology Man'yoshu and features displays of historical artifacts from the Nara period.

Built in 1994, this museum stands near the archaeological site of the Inaba Provincial Capital, which operated as an administrative center after the Taika Reform of 645.

The museum maintains a Japanese garden that grows forty different plant species mentioned in the Man'yoshu poetry collection, connecting nature with literary traditions.

The facility offers free parking for 100 cars, opens from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and charges 300 yen for adult admission with free entry for seniors and students.

Visitors can experience the fashion of ancient Japan through a clothing rental service that provides garments similar to those worn during the Man'yoshu period.
