“Boso-no-Mura” Historic ambient in Old Chiba

Very nice experience. Feels like in Edo-period movie. All the staffs are very friendly. I tried the old style sweets & coffee, so delicious! You should rent costume in the entrance to really live the experience. They provide some anime characters costume as well.

An amazing village frozen in time. It was fascinating to see how people in Japan lived during the Edo period. The houses were already earthquake proof. They were also built for privacy and security as well as the weather. The farms were organized and practical.

To enjoy the place & to have nice photo shots better go & visit the place on weekdays. The ambience is so unexplainable. You can image yourself in Edo period. They have rentals for ninja & yukata, you can wear them while walking along the village (replica).

This is a must for people who wanted to experience old Japan. They also have tea ceremony. You can choose from 300 or 500yen. Aside from it, they are also various activities to try like pot making, senbei making & others. Just check their website to learn more.

The general admission fee is very affordable, 300yen for the general public. For grade school only 150yen.

Don’t hesitate to visit. It’s quiet huge place so I recommend a whole day visit. Food is allowed, but of course no littering.

Great place for family outing and very educational as well.

Normally I would not give 5 stars as most of the exhibits are only explained in Japanese, but this place is so exceptional in its scope ! Many hands on activities for kids. Only had 2 hours, which was not enough. Recreations of farms, stores and houses from 100 years ago and older. Free admission for seniors and young children.

Absolutely beautiful open air museum that looks like an old town. Very traditional buildings and so much great foliage. You get the opportunity to cosplay fun things like samurais and ninjas or sport a beautiful kimono. They dress you from head to toe and then you get to explore the place. Very serene and peaceful.

I wound up here on accident after going to the nearby onsen/restaurant. It was so much fun! Not expensive and very pretty and informative. I am American and speak basically no Japanese and was still able to do crafts and a tea ceremony. I really enjoyed it and would recommend to anybody who doesn't mind walking a bit.

not too far from Narita airport, this open-air museum with typical Japanese houses from different periods like Edo is really worth a visit - take a stroll (an hour plus) not just to kill time before your flight but to immerse yourself in history and learn about original Japanese life… liked it a lot!

This is a delightful open-air historical museum. The entrance fee is minimal (free if over 65) and the fees for some activities are also very negligible. If you don't take part in any of the additional activities such as experiencing a tea ceremony, making paper or making an original notepad, there are still so many things to see and experience. I spent over three hours here - including eating lunch at a nice covered pavilion. Even though I went on a national holiday it was very quiet and did not feel crowded at all. As this place is accessible by bus, I recommend it for anyone who has extra time in the Narita area. You can even dress in kimono during your time in the museum!

This is the EDO period Japanese equivalent of an American old west town that you can visit and step into the period. It is functional with a blacksmith, people making traditional paper, bamboo goods and foods. They have cultural and entertainment things here, whether you want to learn what life was like for the people of this period, or you just want to cosplay as a Samurai or Ninja. Either way, it is fun.

Great place to visit. Volunteer English speaking tour guide is clear. Stamps is for sales at the ticket booth. 70yen for postcard to UK. Highly recommended

The kimono experience is amazing. I never imagined it to be fun wearing the traditional clothing while enjoying the cherry blossom sight in edo era of Japan.

Regarding this place, I guess we can say.... Old town road. Yeee-hhaaaa!
The atmosphere is old Edo town. Inside the building is a thematic museum gallery. You can experience making traditional Japanese trinkets such as koi feeder or hair ornaments and tea ceremony at samurai house.

A fantastic place to visit.
This is a reproduction samurai town with a working garden area and rice paddies. There were a lot of interesting activities/crafts that you could participate in.
It is in a somewhat rural area that was nice to see as well.

Wonderful open air museum with 19th century Eto-period shops, homes, and farms. English speaking guide gave my wife and I a wonderful tour.

Very reasonable admission also includes separate museum of prehistoric relics from the area.

Highly Recommended.

Worth the visit but definiely take the bus from Narita Station to get you the front of the place. Weekends will offer more activities to participate in.

You can walk in a recreated Edo period village. Very big an interesting.
