So ein schönes kleines Gebäude vorbei den großen modernen Gebäuden, sehr wirkungsvoll.
Sehr gut beschrieben und wenn man noch auf Google Maps die weiteren Bilder anschaut, wunderschön.

Thanks again for your comments.
This building has been preserved in a very beautiful condition because of previous repairs and other work.
Also, the building has retained its original atmosphere because of the good manners of the people who use the building.
There are many buildings like this in Shimonoseki and Moji on the other side of the river.
Please use Streetview to see them!

Thanks for the comment.
It is really great that the museum is not just a regular museum/museum that you can visit, but that it uses current technology to help you remember those times.
