    Forest Museum

 The Forest Museum exhibits a variety of materials, including extremely large logs, and posters explaining the stand-based forest management system used (‘rinbun segyo-ho’ in Japanese). The restored building was the Rokugo field office, which was built in 1927. You can walk along the Shiratoriyama Walking Path behind the museum.
