About

Located in Osaka's Hattori Ryokuchi Park, this open-air museum features twelve authentic, centuries-old farmhouses relocated from across Japan, including Gassho-zukuri thatched-roof homes. It offers a rare, tranquil look at Edo-period rural life, complete with original hearths, tools, and agricultural artifacts. It is a peaceful, highly visual escape from Osaka's neon-lit downtown that history buffs will love.

Insider Tip

Visit on Sunday afternoons to see volunteers light the traditional irori (hearths), filling the historic homes with authentic woodsmoke.
