[2025 Nagoya Attraction] Travel Guide for Cultural Path Futaba Museum (Updated Jul)

#100 Ways to Travel There is a very famous orange-tiled villa on the Nagoya Cultural Road, which has a history of 100 years. It was the love nest of the then famous tycoon Momosuke Fukuzawa and Japan's top actress Sadano Kawakami. Kawakami Sadayo was no ordinary person. She had a very high international reputation and often toured around the world. Even the then president of the United States and the Tsar were her fans. Picasso also painted a portrait of her! This building combines Japanese and European architectural techniques, was designated as a Japanese cultural property, and was relocated and opened in 2005. In addition to the Japanese-style rooms and gardens, there are also colorful stained glass windows with a European feel. The staircase in the house is even more unforgettable. Even after hundreds of years, the entire solid wood stair railing still exudes a rich wood aroma from time to time!

This is a restored mansion that was once the home of Japan's first actress, Sadayakko Kawakami, and electricity magnate, Momosuke Fukuzawa. Kimonos, suitcases, accessories, documents, and more are on display inside the building. The stained glass is beautiful, and the building itself is very cute, including the exterior. Highly recommended for sightseeing in Nagoya. ✱----------------------------------------------- [Name] Cultural Path Futabakan [Location] 3-23, Tsurugi-cho, Higashi-ku, Nagoya, Aichi [Opening hours] 10:00-17:00 [Closed] Mondays (or the following weekday if Monday is a public holiday), December 29th to January 3rd [Price] Adults (high school students and above) 200 yen, children (junior high school students and below) free Visit date: October 2024 -----------------------------------------------✱ #NagoyaTrip2024 #100TravelStyles #DomesticTravel #Tourism #Nagoya #Tourism #CulturalPath #Futabakan #Aichi #RetroArchitecture #StainedGlass #NagoyaTourism

The area from Nagoya Castle to Tokugawa Garden is called the Cultural Path. You can get there by bus from Nagoya Station, but if you prefer the subway, you can walk from Takaoka Station on the Sakuradori subway line. A combined admission ticket for the Cultural Path Tsutsugikan is 320 yen, so we recommend that. (200 yen each) This is a Western-style building where Japan's first actress, Sadayakko Kawakami, and electricity magnate Momosuke Fukuzawa lived. Inside there is a large stained glass window. There are exhibits of the two people mentioned above, as well as a library for artists with connections to the area. #CulturalPath #Futabakan #Nagoya

Cultural Path Futuba Museum is another unique museum in Nagoya because it is a house turned to Museum. It is not just a house because it is said to be the former house of the first actress of Japan, Sadayakko Kawakami. Therefore, inside are her personal belongings and collections. I was very interested the whole tour because her belongings were really put up there, and these are absolutely classy things, such as her Kimono and the likes. #wintergetaway
