The Edo-Tokyo Museum (江戸東京博物館 Edo Tōkyō Hakubutsukan?) is a museum of the history of Tokyo during the Edo period.[1] It was established in 1993. The main features of the permanent exhibitions are the life-size replica of the Nihonbashi, which was the bridge leading into Edo; the Nakamuraza theatre; and scale models of towns and buildings from the Edo, Meiji and Shōwa periods. The museum is adjacent to the Ryōgoku Kokugikan. It was designed by Kiyonori Kikutake.[2] The distinctive elevated shape of the museum building is modelled after an old storehouse in the kurazukuri style.
The Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum is a branch of the Edo-Tokyo Museum.
