In addition to the big sand dunes, the most famous sand dune museum is this sand dune museum, which is highly recommended. A large number of sand sculpture artworks are displayed here, created by sand sculpture artists from all over the world, and in order to maintain attractiveness, a world region is selected as the theme every year. The entire venue is built according to the theme, and the exhibition is rebuilt in the next year. There is artistic value. Because the theme is different each year, the theme of 2019 is South Asian style. The main feature is the historical style of India. It is very gorgeous and exquisite. You can see the statue of Gandhi as soon as you enter the door, and then a series of various life scenes of South Asian style. Although they are sand sculptures, I have to marvel at the exquisite degree of these sand sculptures. The three-dimensional processing is very delicate. The biggest theme sand sculpture in the museum area is a story of a South Asian marriage, with many characters in the scene. If you think it’s just sand sculptures from India, you’re wrong. In fact, there are Shakyamuni’s teachings, the Bamiyan Buddha in Central Asia, the Lion Rock in Sri Lanka, and so on. Every subject can be said to be vivid. There are three floors in the museum. You can get a better panoramic view on the top. You can also buy Indian curries and art museum souvenirs. There are also photos of works from the past years on the side wall. The second floor is mainly a platform exit, you can go out and look at the big sand dunes directly. Tickets are not expensive, adults only need 600 yen, and you can also use UnionPay cards. It must be a place worth visiting
There is one period every year, and 2020 is the 13th period. It will be launched on April 18th and ends on January 3rd, 2021. During the suspension period, only the sand sculpture signboard at the gate and the bear sand sculpture in the case can be seen. There is also a photo exhibition to visit.
Here you can admire the sculptures made of sand and earth, which are spectacular, and each sculpture is very detailed, and there are even castle sculptures.
Dune Art Museum, during this period of time exhibited the Nordic style, the fine and soft sand can create a smooth face. Finally, Munch's "Scream", the original helplessness and horror turned into a surprise!
