Toi Gold Museum, Mining museum in Toi, Izu, Japan
The Toi Gold Museum contains exhibits about gold mining methods, ore samples, and traditional mining tools from different periods of Japanese history.
The museum occupies the former Toi gold mine site, which operated during the Edo period and produced 40 tons of gold until its closure in 1965.
The museum presents mining traditions through automated dolls in a 400-meter tunnel, demonstrating the roles of both male and female workers during operations.
Visitors can participate in gold panning activities and explore the underground tunnels while learning about mining operations through detailed exhibits.
The museum displays a 250-kilogram gold bar, certified by Guinness World Records as the largest manufactured pure gold bar in existence.
