Tomiko Yamakawa Memorial Museum
This facility opened in April 2007 as the Tomiko Yamakawa Memorial Museum after her birthplace and personal belongings were donated to Obama City.
It displays Tomiko's personal belongings and song manuscripts.
It was the filming location for the deeply memorable scene in the movie "The Man Called Pirate" where "Tetsuzo announces his marriage at the Kida residence."
