Miscellaneous
●The Museum also has a few volunteers capable of guiding visitors in English. Please consult the Museum for availability.
●Guided tours may have to be canceled due to adverse conditions such as an approaching typhoon or an earthquake, or cessation of public transportations, which make it impossible for volunteers to provide guide services. In such cases, the Museum will inform the client of the cancellation as soon as possible. However, please kindly understand that the Museum may not be able to reach the client due to the communication disability.
