Shiretoko Museum
Comprehensive display of nature, history and culture
The Shiretoko Museum celebrates the natural history and human cultures of this Hokkaido peninsula. Stroll through exhibits about the region’s geology and wildlife, as well as the history and folklore of peoples who have lived here for centuries, such as one of Hokkaido’s indigenous groups, the Ainu.
