Lake Biwa Canal Museum

The Lake Biwa Canal Museum surely holds the answers to the many questions you will have.
You can enjoy our carefully constructed miniatures including one of the Keage Incline, showing the specially designed trolley with a boat loaded onto it being hauled up the slope. Or a diorama of the Keage and Okazaki area, and a viewing corner for our large and precious archived footage collection.
On the outdoor terrace, a wonderful view of Okazaki Canal and the water fountain is waiting for you.
