加賀百万石時代村, Edo period themed park in Kaga, Japan.
Kaga Hyakumangoku Jidaimura was a large themed park filled with recreated buildings and streets from Japan's Edo period. The grounds contained multiple structures including homes, shops, and public spaces that represented daily life from that historical era.
The park opened in 1996 with recreated locations and performances designed to bring the Edo period to life for visitors. Financial challenges eventually led to its closure in 2006.
The park demonstrated how merchants and artisans organized their daily work during Japan's feudal period. Visitors could observe craftspeople practicing traditional techniques that shaped the local economy of that era.
The park was located near public transportation and could be reached from the surrounding area without difficulty. The expansive grounds made it possible to spend several hours exploring the recreated village.
The village operated a local farmers market on its grounds, run by nearby agricultural producers. This market began around the same time as the park and added an authentic element to the visitor experience.
