With the broadcast of the NHK historical drama "The 13 Lords of the Kamakura" the Kamakura period is drawing more attention than usual. Therefore, we will exhibit cultural properties related to the Kamakura period, centering on the "Jokyuki Emaki Scroll (owned by Ryukoin Temple)" which was rediscovered for the first time in about 80 years, and introduce Mount Koya from the same period.
