Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural MuseumThirty buildings from the Edo period to the early Showa period, which had high cultural value but were difficult to preserve on site, have been relocated and restored and are on display. Indoor exhibits are also held according to the period of construction and the purpose for which the building was used, recreating the lifestyle and culture of that time. The designs for the film Spirited Away (2001), directed by Hayao Miyazaki (Studio Ghibli), were based on the designs of public bathhouses in the museum and the architecture of merchant houses in the downtown area.
