Edo-Tokyo Museum

The Edo-Tokyo Museum, one of the last stops on August 13, is a striking building filled with fascinating exhibits about the development of Japan. If you've ever visited the Smithsonian Museum of American History, you'd probably recognize the type of exhibits at Edo-Tokyo. Though not as widely visited as the Tokyo National Museum, this one, at least to me, was far less "stodgy."
