Overview of Forest and Flower Picture Book Museum Garden Lei We have collected everything from nostalgic works to rare treasures, focusing on pop-up books, in a retro space that uses the building of a former restaurant. We opened as a new picture book museum using the facilities of the European cuisine restaurant 'Eleganto,' which operated in Sera Town for over 40 years, almost as they were. Surrounded by seasonal flowers and waterside, please relax and enjoy picture books inside our dreamlike museum, as if you have wandered into a fairytale world.
