Kanazawa Yuwaku Edomura

The open-air museum contains a collection of twelve preserved buildings that represent architecture from early Edo to early Meiji periods in Japan.

In 2003, Kanazawa City initiated the relocation of historical structures to create a dedicated space for preserving architectural heritage from the Edo period.

The museum includes different social class residences, from farmer houses to samurai dwellings, reflecting the structured society of Edo-period Japan.

The museum operates from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM, with adult admission at 310 yen and free entry for students and children.

A paper mill attached to a farmer's residence was added in 2013, demonstrating traditional Japanese papermaking techniques from the period.
