Reviews
The content is quite rich, and it would be even better if there were more multilingual guides. In addition to swords, the armor collection is also worth seeing. There are not many interactive facilities inside, so if you are not interested in history or weapons, you might want to skip it.
The QR code didn't work via Klook. The museum was very nice, but I had to pay again on-site. Thanks for nothing. 🫡
