Museum of Logistics

The Logistics Museum in Minato-ku allows you to learn about the history of the logistics industry from the Edo period to the present day. On the first floor, you can comprehensively understand Japan's "dawn of the logistics industry" through promissory notes, tools, models, and more. On the second floor, you can actually experience the transportation tools used in the past. Land, sea, and air transportation vehicles, as well as railways, ships, and aircraft, are also on display, making it a valuable learning spot for both children and adults.

On the basement floor of the Logistics Museum, there is a huge diorama that reproduces the logistics terminals of land, sea, and air. The diorama, which is reproduced at a scale of 1/150, allows you to understand the actual flow of logistics, as cargo trucks, cargo ships, and dedicated airplanes move around. In addition, the products transported by land, sea, and air are also reproduced in detail, providing a thrilling experience. It's a must-see for anyone interested in modern logistics!

On the second floor of the Logistics Museum, there is an experiential corner called "Transportation Comparison" where you can actually touch the transportation tools used since the Edo period. You can also experience carrying a 5-kilogram load back and forth using tools such as a balance pole and a shoulder ladder, which were commonly seen in the past. Why not immerse yourself in the feeling of working at the port back then and feel the logistics industry of the past with your whole body? It's a valuable spot that can be enjoyed by both children and adults.
