#Otaru Music Box Museum-Otaru City, Hokkaido, Japan

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 In front of the main entrance of the Otaru Music Box Museum at the Otaru Fairy Tale intersection stands a European-style steam clock. Its appearance is very similar to the steam clock in Vancouver, Canada, because they are always the focus of tourists' attention. The steam clock standing at the entrance of the Music Box Hall was made of bronze by a famous Canadian watchmaker in 1977. It is 5.5 meters high, 1 meter wide, and weighs 1.5 tons. In addition to telling the time on the hour, the air whistle above also emits steam every 15 minutes. Almost all the items sold in Domotokan are music boxes. There are music boxes of various shapes and sizes, and the prices are not expensive, making them a great gift. I also bought two music boxes here, one is a ♥-shaped music box, and the other is a piano-shaped music box. My kid at home likes music boxes very much, and I promised him that I would give him a music box for his birthday next year. It just so happened that they were on sale here, so I prepared the birthday gift for next year 🎁 in advance. The clerk was also very considerate and ♥ asked if I wanted to give it to someone else. I nodded in response to the clerk. He also skillfully packed the two music boxes and put them into the handbag. I really admire the Japanese people's attention to such small details and their service attitude towards customers.
