For a limited time, Hiroshima will be saying hello to a museum event like no other - the Unko Museum. Following in the footsteps of other Unko Museum pop-ups in Yokohama, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Fukuoka, the event will showcase all things poop in an entirely different light. From an unko volcano that shoots out mini poops, through to photogenic areas set up with glittering turds (perfect for the Instagrammers out there!), this is a unique addition to any summer calendar.
Tickets are priced at 1500 yen for adults and 1000 yen for children, but they can be purchased in advance online at a slight discount of 100 yen.
Getting there
The Unko Museum in Hiroshima takes place at the Marina Hop Mermaid Space, which can be accessed by bus from Hiroshima Station. Take the Hiroden Bus #3 until you reach the dedicated stop for Marina Hop - the travel time is just under 40 minutes.
