About this event
Tsushima, where diplomatic envoys and trading ships came and went since ancient times, was a strategic hub of foreign exchange. At the same time, because of its location between the Japanese archipelago and the Asian mainland, it was also a place that accumulated history as a 'frontline island', facing invasions by East Asian powers and pirates. This exhibition explains the defense history Tsushima traced from ancient to medieval times, accompanied by photographs of related historical materials concerning the construction of Kaneda Castle, the Mongol invasions, and pirate raids. It provides a valuable opportunity to experience the history and culture of Tsushima.
