Asaminami Ward · near Chorakuji Station (Astram Line) (5 min walk)
Numaji Transportation Museum in Asaminami Ward. A whole museum about how people move, with a huge miniature city model, hands-on transport exhibits and 'fun bicycles' and pedal vehicles kids can ride outside.
Why children love it: A whole museum about how people move, with a huge miniature city model, hands-on transport exhibits and 'fun bicycles' and pedal vehicles kids can ride outside.
Honest drawbacks: It sits about 20 minutes out of the city centre on the Astram Line, so it is a dedicated trip rather than a stop between central sights.
