Little World, Ethnographic museum in Inuyama, Japan.

Little World is an ethnographic museum in Inuyama that displays original houses and rooms from many countries around the globe. The grounds span a large area and feature structures from Alaska, Nepal, Europe, and other regions to show how people in different places have lived.

The museum was founded in 1983 to gather authentic buildings from different cultures in one place. Since then it has brought together houses and artifacts from around the world to document the diversity of human settlements.

The museum shows how people from different cultures built and furnished their homes across the world. Visitors can try on traditional clothing and see everyday objects from other lands, giving insight into how different communities live.

The grounds are laid out over a large area, so comfortable shoes are important and the paths take time to explore. The site offers solutions for visitors with limited mobility, and small vehicles help cover greater distances.

Visitors receive museum passports where they can collect stamps from different countries as they explore the grounds. This simple idea turns the visit into a playful adventure and helps guests document their journey through the various cultures on display.
