Yamanashi Prefectural Maglev Exhibition Center

This is a museum-type facility where visitors can observe a real Maglev traveling at speeds of 500 km/h. On days when test runs are conducted, you can see the Maglev train in action from each floor of the facility. The outdoor terrace on the second floor is a popular photo spot, because you can actually feel the gust of wind when the train goes by at 500 km/h instead of watching from behind the glass.
