  There are panels throughout the museum that recreate historical facts using CG and animation. We incorporate a variety of techniques to create presentations, such as having a Karakoji guide you around a Chinese mansion, reporting on historical events with a commentator in the style of a modern news program, and having quizzes about materials.
  
  Even people who are not good at history can enjoy learning about the history of Nagasaki while having fun.
  Don't just look at the exhibits silently, try experiencing them.
