Museum • Shimokawaramachi-100 Iwadeyama, Ōsaki, Miyagi 989-6434, Japan
The 'Sensory Museum' in Osaki City, Miyagi, is an innovative experiential exhibition facility that comprehensively stimulates the senses of sight, sound, smell, and touch, enabling conscious perception of usually unnoticed sensations and encountering fresh surprises and discoveries.
As soon as you enter, you will experience a mysterious auditory experience. In the maze of sound, the sense of direction becomes unclear with just the sound of footsteps, and in a world without sound, an auditory illusion occurs. By sharpening your sense of hearing, you may be able to travel back and forth between the ordinary and the extraordinary.
Next, you will enter the world of scents. Various scents such as the sweet and sour fragrance of fruits, the scent of a forest, and the scent of artificial chemicals open the doors of memory. Nostalgic memories or unknown landscapes may come to mind.
In a zone where you grope through pitch darkness, your sense of sight is impaired, but your sense of touch is sharpened. The unevenness of the walls, the texture of the floor, and unexpected objects suddenly appearing. By feeling with your hands, you can interpret the unseen world.
The Sensory Museum is an attractive facility where children and adults can fully utilize their senses for a captivating experience. The admission fee is reasonable, and it seems enjoyable to bring local products purchased at nearby roadside stations and enjoy them in the courtyard. By experiencing the sensory world that is usually overlooked, you will encounter fresh discoveries.
