Japanese House
Visit a replica of a traditional Japanese home.  Built of materials natural to Japan and in collaboration with Tuscaloosa’s Sister City, Narashino, the house presents the Japanese perception of beauty which emphasizes
simplicity, and a closeness to nature.  Stamp your passport and have tea in the tatami room or visit the kitchen and furo (bath) with its wooden tub. Japanese style toys and pretend to eat Japanese “food” with chopsticks provided in packages. Be sure to take your chopsticks home with you!
