Man'yo-kan

Man'yo-kan is a small literary museum devoted to the Man'yoshu, Japan's oldest major poetry collection. Some poems in the anthology are associated with the Ajimano area of Echizen, and the displays explain that local link.

It is a quiet, specialist stop, but it pairs well with nearby craft and shrine visits if you are already exploring Echizen beyond the city centre.
