The Hakuseki-kan
is a museum of minerals and jewels.
There is a pyramid
made with locally produced 5,500 tons of granite. It is reproduced in 1/10 the
size of the pyramid of King Khufu, and the underground maze is spreading. You
can see rare exhibits such as natural crystals, diamonds, fossils, stone of the
pyramid in Egypt, rock of Everest.
The popular corner
in the museum is the “jewelry search”. There are 30 types of precious stones
and jewels in the sand of the pool, and you can get them by digging with a bowl
or hand.
Also, you can
experience fossil digging and gold panning.
