Okuizumo Tane Museum of Natural History
A museum in Okuizumo, Shimane Prefecture, dedicated to natural history. Under the theme of "The Evolution of the Universe and the History of Life," it introduces the journey of life over Approx. 4 billion years through fossils and minerals. Exhibits that tell the story of how the Earth came to be include dinosaur fossils such as the full skeleton of a giant Allosaurus and Euoplocephalus with its distinctive tail, as well as marine life fossils and gem-quality ammonites.
The specimens and fossils all felt very authentic. Kids would have a great time here, while for adults it’s more of a learning experience.
The air conditioning was comfortable, the environment was quiet, and it wasn’t crowded, so it was very relaxing to look around.
