Hi all,
next November I will be going to Japan again for a holiday. This time, my travel companion is a firefighter (on a voluntary basis). This is his first visit to Japan, so there will be plenty to see already :)
But I wonder if there are any things to do / visit with a relation to firefighting? For instance like the Firefighting museum in Shinjuku (which is on our list :) ).
We will visit the following cities: Nagasaki Hiroshima Kyoto Nagoya Takayama Tokyo
Thanks in advance! Rebecca

The Tokyo Fire Dept. Museum is at Yotsuya 3-chome station on the Marunouchi subway line. There is a direct connection into the basement level of the museum. As you enter ther eis a small gift shop with lots of fire things to buy. The building is 10-storys tall. Part of the first floor is the entire 2nd floor is the main Yotsuya fire station. The rest of the building is the museum. The displays are on floors B1, 1 and 2 through 6. There is a cafeteria on on of the higher floors with nice views of that part of the city. When you go up to the first floor there is a reception desk and they might get someone to show you around speaking English.
