While we got to experience the retro vibes at the Yufuin location, the original Hida Takayama Retro Museum seems to go even harder on the Showa-era nostalgia. We're talking full reconstructed streets from the 40s and 50s, packed with all those amazing vintage Japanese items - old toys, figurines, classic magazines, and even vintage pachinko machines.

What makes these museums special is how they capture everyday life from Japan's post-war period.
