After visiting Tokaikan, my friend and I visited the Kinoshita Mokutaro Museum, which is owned and operated by the City of Ito. It is located 5 minutes by foot from Ito Station and the admission is 100 yen. This museum is a tribute to the achievements of the late Kinoshita Mokurato - a medical scientist, writer, and artist. The museum opened in 1985, to mark the centennial of his birth. The house was built in 1835 and was the place where he was born. The house is a special cultural asset of Ito City as one of its oldest, well-preserved houses.
Thank you for sharing.
