Slip into the atmosphere of a working class neighborhood set in the pre 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake days. A mural on the landing between the first and second floors depicts peddlers, artisans and blue-collar workers going about their daily life during the Edo period. The extensive display of household items gives a fascinating peek into a lifestyle from days gone by. The exhibits have no explanations in English, but an English language guide is available. Guide dogs are permitted and there are wheelchair toilets on two floors.
