Shitamachi Museum

The is a museum in Ueno, Taito, Tokyo, Japan. Located on the shores of Shinobazu Pond within Ueno Park, it's dedicated to the traditional culture of Tokyo's Shitamachi.
==Historical background==
''Shitamachi'', term translatable as ''Low City'', is the unofficial name given to the Tokyo flatlands, that is the area of Tokyo going from Taitō to Chiyoda and Chuō.〔 The Shitamachi got its name from the fact that it's the physically low part of the city next to, and particularly east of, the Sumida River.〔(Edward Seidensticker: Low City, High City: Tokyo from Edo to the Earthquake: how the shogun's ancient capital became a great modern city, 1867-1923 )〕 Although not necessarily poor, it was inhabited by Edo's lower classes, including craftsmen, fishermen, sailors and merchants.〔 The area produced most of what was original in Edo's culture and was the entertainment and shopping center of the capital.〔 What remains of the old Shitamachi can nowadays be found in and around Tokyo's Taito, for example in Asakusa. The Shitamachi Museum is dedicated to explaining this area and its distinctive culture through original artifacts.
