Visit to the Yushukan at Yasukuni Jinja in Tokyo, Japan

Yushukan at Yasukuni Jinja

Ichigaya, Tokyo, Japan

In 1993 and 1996 I visited Yasukuni Jinja and spent several hours going through the Yushukan museum. I only took video during my 1996 visit, so the pictures I have are from the 1993 visit. A few of these pictures were taken through glass windows and display cases, so I apologize for the glare.

This aircraft was discovered on Yap island in 1972 and brought back to

Japan for restoration. A total of 220 volunteers restored the aircraft back

to its original state in 75 days (06 SEP ~ 29 NOV 1990).
