Lafcadio Hearn Memorial Hall (Koizumi Yakumo Kinenkan) Review

The Hearn museum has a good collection of the author's manuscripts and other artifacts related to his life in Japan. It's adjacent to Koizumi Yakumo Kyukyo, Hearn's former residence in Matsue. Two minutes from the Memorial Hall is the Hearn Kyukyo bus stop, where a bus goes back to the center of town and the station.
