The museum staff was excellent in providing the guided tout to all visitors. My wife and I could understand the history of struggles and passion of the Japanese American in the US since before WWII.

In good weather, take a guided walking tour of Japantown. It's a good way to learn about the history of the area, but also to discover new places to eat and shop. Read more

日本から来たらここは訪れるべきですね。大戦中に同胞が苦しんだことは、アメリカだけでなく日本政府の責任もあります。いずれにしても、戦争だけはよくないと、改めて気付かされます。善きアメリカ市民として、努力をされた先人に頭が下がります。
