Edo-Tokyo Open Air Museum
 
basic information

Takahashi Korekiyo's Residence
Public Bathhouse

The Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum exhibits a range of historic buildings from the Tokyo area. The buildings were relocated or reconstructed there in order to preserve a chapter of architectural history, which has been almost completely lost in fires, earthquakes, wars and city redevelopment.

Most of the buildings exhibited are from the Meiji Period (1868-1912) or more recent times, and include among others, a politician's elegant former residence, a farm house, a public bathhouse, various shops and a police box.

The Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum is a branch museum of the superb Edo-Tokyo Museum.

how to get there

The open air museum is located in the western part of Koganei Park, Koganei City, 25 minutes west of Tokyo's Shinjuku Station by train. From Shinjuku, you can either access it by the Seibu Shinjuku Line (260 yen to Hana-Koganei Station) or JR Chuo Line (290 yen to Musashi-Koganei Station).

From either station, the park is a 5 to 10 minute bus ride or 15 to 30 minute walk.
