Miura Ayako Literature Museum, Literary museum in Asahikawa, Japan.
The Miura Ayako Literature Museum exhibits manuscripts, photographs, and personal items within a modern building surrounded by the Foreign Tree Specimen Forest.
Established in June 1998, this institution commemorates author Ayako Miura, who wrote influential novels including 'Hyoten' and 'Shiokari Pass' from 1964 until her death in 1999.
The museum functions as both a literary center and biographical archive, featuring exhibits that document the connection between Miura's Christian faith and her literary works.
Located 20 minutes on foot from Asahikawa Station, the museum maintains daily operations from 9:00 to 17:00, with free parking for 30 vehicles and 4 tour buses.
The museum's 2018 renovation introduced multisensory exhibits, including a recreation of Miura's study where she dictated her novels due to her physical condition.
