Yokai Art Museum Admission in Shodoshima

Stepping out of Tsuchozaki Port and into Shodoshima's "Maze Town," a labyrinthine district that dates back to the days of pirates, the Yokai Art Museum quietly awaits me in a quaint corner. Inside the wooden warehouse, I'm guided from the origins of yokai to the modern era, listening to the poetic narrative of how "Yokai are fear, comfort, and culture" – from the spiritual views of the late Heian period to the entertaining yokai of the Edo period. The museum, spread across several old houses, is not just a stage for yokai exhibitions, but also a resonance of culture and imagination. Wandering through it, I realized that the yokai here are not meant to scare, but rather to reflect the depths of the human heart and its warmth.

Great! 😊 I think the design is excellent, and there's also a Chinese audio guide. It's especially wonderful, and I believe it's quite suitable for families with children; the kids will love it too.

You can buy and use it on the same day, and it's also cheaper. There are fewer exhibits, but it's still worth a look.

Very convenient, buy and use immediately, cheaper than buying on-site. The Yokai Art Museum has 4 exhibition halls. The art museum displays many monster sculptures. The Kawasho Naomi Art Museum is just a small exhibition hall with many paper crane artworks. If you have time on Shodoshima, you can come and visit.

Advantages: 1. The exhibits are all very beautiful (the kappa is my favorite, what a handsome guy >V<), the pictures on the left and right are so varied, and the lighting makes Lidu look very distinctive. 2. It feels like an adventure, just grab the map, put on the headphones, and listen ( Mandarin) The guided tour is suitable for one person to have an adventure. 3. The three areas are not very big, but the walking tour is interspersed with ups and downs. It has special disadvantages: 1. Although wi-fi is provided, it is difficult to connect to the app for explanation. It’s not a good deal (even if I use my own data, it’s the same) 2. The monster items sold in the store are not very attractive. I only bought the two monsters on the left (kappa and tengu). I want both. TAT PS: If you don’t know about monsters If you are interested, I won’t recommend it^^

A magical place filled with hidden details. Anyone who enjoys interesting things should definitely visit! ^^

If you’re visiting Shodoshima and want an amazing, unique experience, don’t skip the Yokai Art Museum! As someone with a deep interest in yokai, I found the exhibitions to be incredibly interesting and beautifully curated. It’s an absolute must-see for fellow folklore lovers or anyone curious to know more about these fascinating creatures.

There are a total of four exhibition halls, and you can see them all in about an hour. There's also the Naoki Onogawa Exhibition Hall, which features eight particularly special works. It's open until 9 PM on weekdays, so you can visit other attractions during the day.
