The Tsuki no Sabaku (Moon Desert) Memorial Hall is an Arabian-style building inspired by the famous Japanese song "Moon Desert," located a 10-minute walk from Onjuku Station. The hall features two camel statues and houses exhibits dedicated to the song's lyricist, Masao Kato. The first floor hosts rotating special exhibitions, while the second floor is dedicated to Kato's life and works. It's a great place to learn about the history of the song and enjoy the coastal scenery. The museum is near Onjuku Beach, making it a convenient stop during a beach visit. Consider visiting during the day to fully appreciate the exhibits and surrounding area.
