It’s weekend. Want to go somewhere but not so far. One of colleague recommended me to go here.
It is a carpentry tool museum by Takenaka Corp. Well, I kinda excited because this is company where I was working last year. And, my final task for university is wood carpentry museum too. So I feel curious about it.
Let’s go!

Very traditional style (but also modern though!) entrance.

There is a zen garden and we can see the museum building from the entrance gate. Peaceful atmosphere.
We can buy the museum ticket in this lobby, around 500 yen per person. And you can take photos inside. The museum journey start by walking down stairs to B1. So it is going down down down.

And very big tools!
The sleek black wooden ceiling contrasted with wooden display, make it more standing.

Carpentry tool is not just coming from Japan, but around the world, in this photo, this is coming from German.

After that we go to downstair in B2. I could say that B2 floor is more interactive room. There is workshop area, PC and library area, and bigger display like types of tree or real house mock up with tatami inside!
I try to carve the wood!

![tak-carpentry-tool-m_324](https://liniocvenety.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/tak-carpentry-tool-m_324.jpg?w=663)
See! They have so many types of wood that we can carve.
And each wood has different smell. Very good experience.
This is workshop with glass wall, and we can wait outside in library and pc area.

I’m amazed with this wooden partition. Such great detail right?!

And I try to go inside the traditional house.

The trip is finished, we go back to upstairs.
There is public audio visual room as last room.
And we can see the Takenaka san old house. Quiet and peaceful area.

In conclusion, this museum is so calm and full of delightful wooden works. Good place to visit before afternoon tea!
