The exhibit contains a massive exhibit of samurai hardware from the period of 1156-1868. That covers a tremendous time period in history including the warring state years of the late 1500’s in Japan!
So, get in the spirit of the Seven Samurai & Zatoichi and don’t let the chance of seeing the spirit of what these warriors in Japan represented during the fuedal times in the land of the rising sun!
