  Lovely colourful, old building that commands nice views across the harbour. It is up a slight hill, so if you have mobility issues please take that into account, though it is nothing too taxing. You're free to wander the halls and take in the pleasant interior. If I recall correctly, you are able to rent traditional Japanese clothing and pose for pictures on the balcony. Well worth a visit.

  Nice and beautiful place. Light-blue wall and yellow line, lovely colour combination. The main hall inside (2nd floor) is astonishing and the view from the balcony is amazing! The volunteer persons will explain the history and would help you to take a picture. I heard the place will be closed from October 2018 for 2 years for renovation. Better to check the website before you visit.
