Okaya Silk Museum (Silk Fact Okaya)

They provide a tablet that would interpret everything in English. Try to notice the hands of the old folks who sorted out the cocoons in a tub of warm water, so smooth due to the essential oils that are produced by the larvae. Amazing!

Such a nice museum! I reccomend the english listening device but a good chunk of the information is in their english pamphlet. The staff was super nice. I met the head curator and owner of the silk factory you can walk through.

Full of interesting information about history and silk production

Cool little museum with two small gift shops and you can see people spinning silk. They had an English audio tour, but otherwise nothing except the names of things were written in English.

Foreigners can expect the usual "gaijin allergy"
