Welcome！ It’s been a few years since I visited the Joetsu Archaeological Center at the foot of the Kasugayama Castle site. Look who was my personal tour guide! Local medieval war hero Uesugi Kenshin, himself. Tables full of ancient pottery artifacts, even today still being unearthed, is the archeological science that takes place here. I’ve carved out and sanded an ancient medalist replica out of sandstone here with I CAN kids more than a few times. But since the last time I was here, the curators have upped the entertainment with the Omotenashi Butai (welcoming brigade?) from Kenshin’s era, and more user-friendly exhibits, including a 3-D virtual reality experience of the Battle of Kawanakajima (as enacted up the street during the highlight of the Kenshin Festival in August). So happy that the friendly hosts were there to give me a personal tour! #joetsu #kenshin #kasugayama #maizo #bunka #omotenashi https://www.instagram.com/p/Brfb13wjr9y/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1l9rlfltt91py -- source link
