Tobacco and Salt Museum

たばこと塩の博物館 Tabako to Shio no Hakubutsukan

This peculiar institution owes its existence to Japan's government monopoly on these two substances. The website advises that "dangerous substances are not permitted within the museum". They have map-guides of the museum in English and most exhibits have English translations. There is a free mobile-app based auto tour as well.
