Asahi Choritsu Furusato Museum, History museum in Asahi, Japan

The Asahi Choritsu Furusato Museum displays artifacts, photographs, and documents that record how the Asahi region grew and changed over time. The collection includes archaeological finds from local excavations that shed light on early settlements and farming methods.
