The Four Northern Islands Exchange Center NI HO RO
features exhibition rooms showing the history and
current situation of the Northern Territories, the
Russian Culture Room, where visitors can
experience Russian culture, and the Northern
Museum, which exhibits valuable documents and
maps.
The exhibition rooms clearly show the
history, current state and people’s lives of the
Northern Territories. The second-floor exhibition
rooms display historically valuable photos,
documents, and maps related to the four northern
islands. The Japanese Culture Room is a
Japanese-style room where visitors can experience
traditional Japanese culture, including tea
ceremony and flower arrangement. Russians living
on the four northern islands who visit Nemuro
under the visa-free exchange program experience
Japanese culture here.
On clear days, Kunashiri Island can be seen
from the observation room on the second floor.
