The Shoko Shuseikan Museum (尚古集成館, Shoko-shuseikan), with exhibitions about the Shimazu clan (島津家, Shimazu-ke), as well as a factory where you can view the manufacturing process of Satsuma Kiriko cut glass, are also nearby.
This area is a must-visit for fans of Japanese history and traditional culture.

Places to Experience Japanese History and Culture in Kagoshima
There are famous places to experience Japanese history and culture in Kagoshima.
One such place is the Tsurugane Shrine (鶴嶺神社, Tsurumine-jinja), where the head of the Shimazu clan is enshrined.

One more drawing point of Japan’s popular sightseeing area, Kagoshima, is the mouthwatering food!
If you visit Kagoshima, one delicacy you can’t afford to miss is the Kagoshima Kurobuta pork (かごしま黒豚, Kagoshima kurobuta).
