Fukagawa Edo Museum presents a fascinating miniature reproduction of downtown Edo, which later developed into Tokyo, in a panoramic perspective at its general exhibition hall. You will enjoy the bird's-eye view of Fukagawa Saga town where scaffolds for fire lookouts rising high above the waves of the roofs of houses, and the canals gently embracing gondolas moored here and there, together with white-walled warehouses and large stores standing side-by-side forming the main street, indicate peace and composure retained in this area of town, in contrast to the areas of neat but small row houses, the living quarters for the lesser-income populace, altogether convey the atmosphere of a typical scene of downtown Edo.
The sound effects that reproduce the early-morning crowing of roosters and shouting of vendors, and the lighting that simulates the passage of time in a day, help us to imagine the life of people in this town and their warm emotions.
Change of clothing and environment such as flowers in the gardens as the seasons advance, together with the presentation of seasonal events, will help you feel the attraction of life in this town in each season. Why don't you come and share the sentiment of people in Fukagawa Saga town of Edo in the mid-19th century?
