Japan Museum of Maritime Science (Fune no Kagakukan)

Housed in a building shaped like a huge ocean liner, this is one of Tokyo's most
entertaining museums. It's dedicated to the sea and ships, and features exhibits, models, hands-on displays and theater presentations.
Most fascinating are the hundreds of intricate models of everything from Edo-era benzai ships to today's most modern container ships and liners.
Those with a lot of time on their hands can also visit the Yotei Maru, which once ferried the waters between Aomori and Hokkaido before the opening of an underwater tunnel made its job obsolete; today, oddly enough, it serves as a floating amusement center of sorts. With the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation nearby, and a public swimming pool next door, this area of Odaiba makes a good destination for families.
