called "Hihokan" which translates to "House of Hidden Treasures"

typically located near Japan's many onsen (hot spring resorts)

Japan

boasts both the longest history of sex museums and perhaps the greatest number of them

Privately owned and operated, the variety and type of exhibits

depend on the predilections of the owner

One

outstanding feature of Hihokan is their vast collections of dildos and other artificial phalli

one particularly noticeable example at the Beppu hihokan standing nine feet tall

a slide down the rod ride to perk you up in a hurry

selection of carnival-style games - each with a unique, sexy twist

variation in mammalian members

displayed by one hihokan's preserved phallic promenade

in order from rabbits to whales

local fertility festivals in which giant replica male organs

are paraded

then rubbed or ridden by women
