Iki, which is located between China/Korea and Japan, flourished in trade and is a historic island that was introduced in a Chinese history book nearly 2,000 years ago. This museum exhibits a number of valuable materials excavated from various archaeological sites on the island. Especially popular are the experience corner where you can touch earthenware and stoneware used by people at that time, the view theater where you can learn about the history of Iki and a diorama that reproduces the way of life at that time. Try some quizzes at the huge diorama or do a simulated earthenware excavation that is fun for both children and adults while also learning about history. Of course, the exhibit introductions and audio guides are available in three languages: English, Chinese and Korean. Therefore, overseas visitors can also enjoy learning.
