Let’s take a walk around Minato pia in Niigata and discover the historic buildings that tell the story of this old international port city.

Minato Pia consists of the museum itself and various buildings and other structures that have been present since the port first opened. Experience the atmosphere of yesteryear while enjoying a fascinating stroll through history.

The museum premises also include the Former Niigata Customs House, shipping landings, and a bonded warehouse, creating an atmosphere that closely resembles the port when it first opened. With a waterway designed as a moat around a grassy plaza, the peaceful landscape is a calming oasis with willows rustling in the passing breeze.

These buildings are a testament to Niigata’s rich history as one of the five harbours through which Japan was connected to the rest of the world.
