SPOT
Celestial music that has descended upon Otaru. This is one of Japan's largest music box specialty stores, marked by the steam clock at the Marchen Crossroads. The building, a historic structure built in 1915 (Taisho 4), preserves the history of Otaru from a bygone era just as it was. The exquisite harmony created by the nostalgic space and the music boxes produces a magical time that can only be experienced here.
With one of the largest selections in Japan, featuring approximately 3,200 types and a total of about 38,000 music boxes, they are very popular as souvenirs of a visit to Otaru and as gifts for loved ones.
