Seikan Ferry Memorial Ship Hakkodamaru
Before the Seikan tunnel opened in the late 1980s, ferries used to connect Hokkaido and Honshu, as commemorated by Seikan Ferry Memorial Ship Hakkodamaru. The self-guided tour of the ferryboat starts on the promenade deck, now a museum displaying photographs and dioramas that depict the lifestyle of the port's people. See preserved cabins, the command bridge, and the open-top deck, then descend to the lower part to check out the engine room. Highlights include the vehicle deck, displaying a historical express car, diesel locomotive, and mail car.

We really enjoyed this museum on the ship. It transports you back in time. You can see the cabins, machine rooms etc and have an amazing view from the top deck! I recommend going at sunset time.

There's entrance fee for this museum. I don't know the inside. It would be better if you buy the ticket together with Nebuta museum, they cost you cheaper if you buy the package price for both museum. You can buy the package ticket at Nebuta museum
