Museum Pick Co., Ltd. (Head office: Miyazaki City, Miyazaki
Prefecture, Representative Director: Hirabayashi
Soichiro) will start the web service “museumpick”. This service uses GPS to check in at approximately 5,000 museum facilities nationwide, allowing you to obtain visit records and stamps.
By touring the museum, we provide an opportunity to increase the charm and enjoyment of your hometown or destination.
Details can be found on the [museumpick site] (https://museumpick.com/
Purpose and background of the service
In Japan, the museum category includes general museums, history museums, art museums, science museums, zoos, aquariums, botanical gardens, zoological and botanical gardens, and open-air museums. “museumpick” was born from the desire to create a service that would make visiting museums even more fun than they currently are. “I want to record the excitement and feelings I felt the moment I encountered my favorite work.”
“I want to enjoy looking back on my impressions from previous visits.” “I want to go to various museums with my family.”
“I want to know where the works of my favorite painter are kept.” “I want to know more about my hometown.” etc.
The reason for visiting a facility varies from person to person depending on their hobbies and way of thinking, but I hope that by keeping a record of your visit and looking back on it, you will be able to enjoy the difference between how you felt at the time and what you felt when you visited again. I think so.
Not only can you select museums from all over Japan and keep a record of your visit through the check-in function using GPS and the search function, but you can also earn stamps with different designs each time you visit.
You can earn stamps from each of 5,000 locations!
For example, when you visit an aquarium, an image reminiscent of an aquarium is generated, and information such as the date and time and an illustration are displayed on top of the image. Just like a goshuin book, you can enjoy the joy of collecting original stamps every time you visit. To make your visit to the museum even more enjoyable, we’ve sprinkled little tricks like this throughout.
With Museum Pick, you can keep a record of what exhibits you saw and with whom when you actually visited a museum, including photos you took. Visit unique museums across the country and experience the joy of re-encountering those memories.
