Nagoya, Japan

Situated in the tranquil grounds of one of Japan's oldest shrines, this treasure house contains an eclectic collection of religious artifacts and regalia. You'll find temple drums, Tang mirrors, Heian masks, and swords here. One of the swords, the sacred Kuasanagi-no-Tsurugi, is reputed to have been handed to an emperor by goddess Amaterasu Omikami. Out of the 3,000 items on display here, it is incredible that 76 have been named important cultural properties or national treasures. Although the museum is cement, its Shosoin-like style is appealing. The price of admission is JPY300.
