Oyama Historical and Folk Museum - Tourist Attraction | Toyama City Official Tourism Website

The Daisen Learning Museum: Where stories of mountains, rivers, and people intertwine.

This easy-to-understand exhibition allows you to experience the "spiritual culture of Oyama" through the footsteps of three sages associated with Oyama.

This museum introduces life and beliefs in Arimine before the construction of the dam. The wooden guardian lion statues, designated as a city cultural property, are a must-see.

From flood control and power generation to mining and dinosaurs, this exhibition offers a wide range of exhibits that allow you to learn about the "story of mountains and rivers" of Mt. Daisen all in one place.

The Oyama Historical and Folk Museum is a museum that comprehensively introduces the history and nature of the Oyama area, including the "Three Sages of Oyama" (Uji Chojiro, Kanayama Bokusho, and Banryu Shonin), the life and culture of Arimine, flood control and power generation on the Joganji River, the Kamegai Silver Mine and Nagato Lead Mine, and dinosaur exhibits.

One of the highlights is the wooden guardian lion statues associated with Arimine (a city-designated tangible folk cultural property).
With accompanying video materials, it's a fun and educational experience for both children and adults.
