Hidaka Mountain Range Museum
A museum exhibiting the history and deep fascination of the Hidaka Mountains
The Hidaka Mountains Museum is a geo-museum of the Hidaka Mountains that exhibits the relationship between the magnificent nature of the Hidaka Mountains and people, from the viewpoint of geology and rocks, in different themes. There are many interesting exhibits, including a diorama of the glacier-covered terrain of the Hidaka Mountains, Hidaka jade stones discovered in Hidaka Town, and creatures unique to the Hidaka Mountains. These are all things you will want to take a closer look at. A Q&A session is also available to test what you have learned in the museum, so why don't you take the challenge?
