-What You Can Expect-

While you are traveling in Kochi, do not miss out on the must-visit Ekin Museum, a precious place for art enthusiasts who are in love with the prestigious painting genre Ukiyo-e. In this museum, you will see the proud work of Hirose Kinzō, commonly known as "Ekin", and find out his appeal.

Enter the 1st Exhibition Hall to see colorful paintings glowing in a dimly lit room. Take your time and appreciate every intriguing detail of each painting and perhaps interpret the story behind the paintings for entertainment. 

In the 2nd Exhibition Hall, you will learn about a creative way to appreciate real pictures, not replicas, in pretty much the safest yet romantic way possible, which is through a peep hole.
