Museum! The Japanese House was transported piece by piece from Kyoto in 1979 to mark the 20^th anniversary of Boston and Kyoto’s sister city relationship. Walk down the street, take off your shoes, and step into this authentic two-story silk merchant’s home. Families can explore every corner of the fully-equipped home, reconstructed in Boston by Japanese carpenters. Japanese family life, customs, ceremonies, art, architecture, and seasonal events are all highlighted in the fully functional 100-year-old house inside the Museum.
