Shitamachi Museum
The donated objects policy is everything. These aren't replicas. A family gave their grandfather's tools.
A ground-floor reconstruction of a Taisho-era (1912–1926) merchant street in old downtown Tokyo. Objects were donated by local families. The coppersmith's shop tools are real — a professional used them.
