The museum is centered around the Fūma Ninja, who supported the Hojo clan during the Warring States period. Visitors embark on a special mission to save the castle. Through various videos and exhibitions, you not only learn about the Hōjō Clan but also interact with them through digital and interactive games.

Trivia: Did you know Fūma ninja became popular due to the anime Naruto?
