The Sand Museum

I went to the Sand Museum in Tottori Sand Dunes ☺️ I was more powerful than I thought! !! !! I'm looking forward to the work every year! You are very satisfied to see the work of the sculptor who came out to Japan ☺️

The theme of the sand museum, this year is the United States, here is the only sand sculpture gallery in the world opened indoors! Craftsmen will pile up the sand, use various tools to carve the sand out, then refine, and finally perfectly presents the art!

Tottori Art Museum The Sand Museum is located in Tottori City, Tottori Prefecture. The only indoor sand sculpture museum in the world, the works inside are lifelike and handled quite delicately. The theme on display is different every year, the same is the same, friends who come to Tottori sand dunes are highly recommended to visit! !

In addition to the large sand dunes in Tottori, the most famous is this sand dunes art gallery, which is highly recommended for a visit. A large number of sand sculpture artworks are displayed here, created by sand sculpture artists from all over the world, and in order to maintain the attraction, a world region is selected every year as the theme, the whole venue is built according to the theme, and the next year is re-published and rebuilt, which is very artistic. Because the theme is different every year, the theme for 2019 is South Asian style. It mainly plays the historical style of India. It is very gorgeous and exquisite. You can see the statue of Gandhi as soon as you enter the door, and then a series of various life scenes of South Asian style, although it is sand sculpture. But I have to marvel at the exquisiteness of these sand sculptures, and the three-dimensional treatment is very fine. The largest themed sand sculpture in the museum area is a South Asian marriage story, and there are many characters in the scene. If you think it is just sand sculptures in India, it is wrong, there are actually Sakyamuni, the Bamiyan Buddha in Central Asia, the Lion Rock in Sri Lanka, and so on, each theme can be said to be wonderful. The museum has three floors, and you can have a better panoramic view. There are also Indian curries and art museum souvenirs to buy. There are also photos of works from past years on the wall on the side. The second floor is mainly a platform exit, you can go out and look directly at the big sand dunes. Tickets are not expensive, adults only need 600 yen, you can also swipe the UnionPay card, it must be worth a place to come once

The sculptures of sand with high degree of restoration, as small as some small scars, are so impressive that the artist is clearly presented with sand and knife

Very worth visiting and learning place, very rewarding.
