Kokonju Mirin period house

A hands-on exchange facility that connects agriculture and consumers, created under the theme of agriculture, food and health. A motoshi experience plantation where vegetables can be harvested with your own hands, a maternity market with local fresh vegetables, a restaurant with an extensive menu, a bath with herbal scents and an integrated facility packed with ornamental greenhouses displaying 350 species of plants. We also hold events in conjunction with spring, summer, autumn and winter. It can be enjoyed in a wide range of ages from small children, so let's go with family.

Renewed in March 2024. On the first floor of the museum, you can learn the power generation mechanism and the content of zero-emission thermal power in a panoramic theater and projection mapping, based on the concept of a “experience-based museum that touches the cutting edge of zero-emission thermal power generation”. The second floor is a children's room komorebi, an area where children under the age of 8 can play freely. In addition, there are three facilities: JERA garden, which walks through the lawn open space and the flower garden, and JERA forest where you can observe wild birds. Picnic is also recommended with play equipment. There is also a maze of jabujabu ponds and plants.

Starting with a large water tank measuring 15m in width and holding 200 tons of water, approximately 270 species of fish, mainly those found along the Japanese coast, are displayed in about 50 tanks. In March of the 8th year of Reiwa (2026), the second-floor exhibition area will be completely renovated as a learning and play space called "Guruncha," aimed at parenting generations. In the outdoor biotope, rare freshwater fish such as Ushimotsugo and Kawabata Moroko can be observed, and the feeding experience of the Japanese pond turtle (limited time) is also popular. Experience events such as craft workshops and backyard tours on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays are held, and there are also plans like the winter "Kotarium," where visitors can observe fish from a kotatsu set up in front of the large water tank, making it something to look forward to.
